“Makin’ Krishna Love” is available worldwide!
America’s newest talent of the swelling “mantra-rock” movement release their first single off their live album with a soulful rendition of the classic "Feel Like Making Love" by Bad Company that will rock your soul.
Punctuated by Indian sitar and western drum and guitar rhythms with elements of folk, rock and blues, the “Makin’ Krishna Love” features the angelic female harmonies of lead singer Katie Wise and backup singer Makashya singing lyrics from “Feel Like Making Love” with beautiful and rousing sections of a heart-opening Krishna mantra.

Professionally recorded during a benefit engagement at a sacred mountain temple in Boulder, Colorado called the Star House, this beautifully mixed and mastered album brings the lush sounds of Bhakti Explosion to your car or living room, with all the exquisite and ecstatic energy of their live concerts.
This release from Katie Wise & Bhakti Explosion falls nothing short of their debut album, Lovolution, which received acclaim in the US, UK, and Australia, and was named “best chant album of the year” by American music promoter Lloyde Barde. Produced by Grammy-nominee Ben Leinbach and featuring guest vocals by Jai Uttal, Lovolution was praised by Dave Stringer as combining “beautifully nuanced country and Americana influences, inflected with just the right amount of Eastern mysticism.”
Celebrated yogi-musician Girish calls Katie Wise & Bhakti Explosion’s music a rich array of contemporary grooves, world music flavors, and lush vocal arrangements.
Heart-centered yogis who love to rock ‘n’ roll have been flocking to Katie Wise & Bhakti Explosion’s live concerts on the West Coast, and at the biggest sacred music festivals in the US and internationally, such as Lovelight, Unify, Arise, Hanuman Festival, Bhakti Fest, Stonehenge Music Festival, and Holistic Manchester to experience the ecstasy of singing along to yogic mantras, set to western melodies and rhythms. Joined by musicians like Trevor Hall, Jai Uttal, Wah!, Tina Malia and Rising Appalachia, Katie Wise & Bhakti Explosion are a rising talent in a new wave of conscious soul music growing around the world.
Perfect music for dancing and relaxation, this song and up-and-coming album release is certain to position Katie Wise & Bhakti Explosion as a leading voice in mantra-rock music; their music can soothe your soul and uplift your spirit.
