The spirit of Cacao connects and opens the heart space. In this space, we gather together in ceremony. Drinking the cacao, we connect together through compassion and intention as we journey with sound. Let the music of guitar and sounds of gongs create a soundscape for a deep, relaxing, and heartfelt journey inward. No movement or prior knowledge required. Just bring intention and a willingness to open your heart.

Inclusion on several Putumayo albums has helped propel the band’s music to listeners across the globe. Their latest album Unity, a
celebration of the universal threads shared across global spiritual traditions, debuted #1 on the iTunes World Music Chart and #3 on Billboard.
