Hey folks,

I'm excited to announce that my new album "The Lotus Effect" is now available at live shows and via www.kalafarnham.com! I've put an extraordinary amount of time and effort into producing this and I feel great about the final product. "The Lotus Effect" tells a story of attachment, loss, and the development of inner strength and resilience. I think the theme of the album is best reflected by this quote by Sri Sathya Sai Baba: "You must be a lotus, unfolding its petals when the sun rises in the sky, unaffected by the slush where it is born or even the water which sustains it." I recorded and produced the entire album independently, but my friends and family worked hard to help me put together some beautiful album artwork. Mark Maksim (marcmphotography.com) photographed a great cover image and Mom created beautiful digital graphics of the lotus flower to place throughout the lyric booklet. Thanks Mark! Thanks Mom!

I want to thank you all for being so supportive of my music. Also, thank you to all the musicians and friends I have encountered this year who have been such an inspiration!

Last but not least, I've been working on getting up a few more youtube videos for those of you who aren't able to make it out to my shows! Check out my cover of Alicia Key's "If I Ain't Got You" and my newest original song "Maitri", accompanied by Marty Wirt on the djembe: www.youtube.com/kalafarnham
