We are 3 minds, hearts and bodies linked in a chain of melodies and grooves we've made to soothe us, and bring us peace and freedom in a world full of confusion.  We came together somehow by chance in the city of angels, and are ever grateful to the few fine ones who knew we would love each other's ideas and aesthetics, and watched our brief introductions turn into rainbows.  Music is our pastime, our future, and our passage into the now.  The words "Lal Meri" convey a great adoration, affection and belief to inspire a people to smile through the best and most troubled of times, much like we are seeing and in need of today.  We only hope that these songs will spill over your senses and fill your hearts with love.  Thank you for you, and for listening.

Sweet Love

The first chakra or root chakra is located at the base of the spine. The corresponding body locations are the perineum, along the first three vertebrae, at the pelvic plexus. This chakra is often represented as a cone of energy starting at the base of the spine and going downward and then slight bent up.

The first chakra is associated with the following functions or behavioral characteristics:

Security, safety
Survival
Basic needs (food, sleep, shelter, self-preservation, etc.)
Physicality, physical identity and aspects of self
Grounding
Support and foundation for living our lives

Root Chakra

Ireesh Lal is a multi-instrumentalist and programmer who combines original electronic music with exotic East Indian elements alongside the distinctly Western tones of the jazz trumpet, creating a captivating new sound. Based in Venice, California, Lal sites Thievery Corporation, Miles Davis, and Ravi Shankar as three of his influences, and you can hear traces of each artist in his music. Built on top of brisk programmed grooves made irresistible with lush Eastern dimensions of tabla and sitar, Lal lays down commanding trumpet lines to convey the melodies, taking the lead amongst the cool, heady swirl of each tune.  

108 College & Community radio stations across North America added his music. Latest album, Journey Through the Chakras, reached #4 on the NACC Top 30 World Music Charts. National Public Radio featured his music on PRI's "The World".

Ireesh Lal is also a founding member of LA-based trio, Lal Meri. His debut release with the band on Six Degrees Records (2009) received positive critical acclaim, including a feature on National Public Radio’s "All Things Considered" and Public Radio International’s "The World". Influential radio station, KCRW, also invited the group to perform live on its program, "Morning Becomes Eclectic". Music from Lal Meri can be heard on Buddha Bar compilation, volume 12.
