Bring Christ-centered Devotional Chant to your Event
I’m hoping to be considered as a new artist during your event, Ecstatic Chant 2022. I’ve been many times to Blue Spirit, often returning for Deva and Miten’s Gayatri Festival. I am friends with Deva, Sukdev and Michael Mayzel, who have all influenced my music. This one minute video is from a chanting event located in my backyard in Orange County California.
How is Christ centered Devotional Chant Music different?
Unlike mantra or chant in the language of Sanskrit or Gurmukhi, this style of chant is in English. My songs originate from biblical reference or a combination of eastern and western spirituality. Instead of chanting to a universal divinity, my chants specifically are songs to God or to Christ, which of course, is also a universal divinity with many names. The music behind the chant has more of a western feel; contemporary, inspirational and uplifting or it is melodic, introspective and prayerful. All of my chants are 5-minutes in length so as to be able to build a chant or meditation practice depending on the number of songs chosen.
What is Christ centered Devotional Chant?
Devotion to means to show adoration and love. A Christ centered chant rejoices and expresses gratitude, compassion and peace in Christ who dwells within every human heart. Christ centered chant is a way to sing praises and prayers to a loving God and can also call light into someone’s life. It uses sound current and a breath pattern to invoke the Spirit while calming the body and soul, thus bringing peace and harmony to the individual.
Samples of Christ-centered Devotional Chant music
My music can be found on I-tunes, Spotify, Amazon, Soundcoud, and my website. I have three albums and 27 chants, with one album of 8 chants ready to release. Normally when chanting, we sit in stillness with eyes closed, but as you can see, my music is also fun to dance to!

About Tonyah
Christ centered Devotional Chant creator
I went through a divorce and was experiencing tremendous anxiety. I discovered churches did not offer meditation as a way of healing so I began and finished a 10 year certification in Kundalini Yoga. I fell in love with the chanting/mantra and meditation aspects of this practice and early one morning heard the voice of God tell me to make devotional chants in English. The songs came pouring out of me even not having had any formal music background. Besides chanting I teach a Christ centered meditation and prayer practice, and am publishing a book on how to do both.
