A new album, LOVE EVOLVE by performance poet and Rumi expert Shahram Shiva will rock your soul and yoga class with a mix of hip and unique music that chills out the most stressed yoga students and delights the most discerning instructor looking to up-level their transcendental experience. Alternately meditative and highly dance-able, Shiva's new album LOVE EVOLVE is a mixed-genre album with mind-altering lyrics that marks a departure from mainstream New Age offerings.  Blending elements of rock, dance, groove based, ambient, electronic and acoustic with the hypnotic voice of Shahram Shiva, #LOVEEVOLVE is a collection of transformative yoga music and meditation with ancient lyrics by Rumi and contemporary works by Shiva. 

"There are over 15 million people practicing yoga in the United States," says Shahram Shiva, an advanced teacher of spirituality and international recording artist endorsed by Deepak Chopra.  "Although yoga is non-competitive in nature, yoga instructors and students alike report they get the best possible experience and more out of their sessions when music moves them.  LOVE EVOLVE is a soundtrack for the Yoga Generation helping them transcend to levels that they've never dreamed of, with music they've never heard before."

Shiva adds that "LOVE EVOLVE is a new anthem for progressive minds and spirits that yearn to constantly evolve, and an empowering experience of love, beauty, freedom, self- acceptance, wisdom and joy." To listen to selections from LOVE EVOLVE click here.
