Mystic Journey
"Mystic Journey takes you there.  Close your eyes, trust, and you will go somewhere else.  When you return, you'll be different... better.  Your inner windshield wipers will have washed off what you don't need.  What you need... is a Mystic Journey.”
						- John Densmore (The Doors)


Mystic Journey is Suzanne Teng (world flutes), Gilbert Levy (world strings and percussion, synths), Dann Torres (guitar, oud, electric sitar), and Jon Ossman (bass and dilruba). This unique world music ensemble creates a new type of instrumental music that is ethereal and exotic,  soulful and healing,  and “sensual and serene,” as described by Billboard Magazine.  The band has evolved over the years and has become an internationally-known ensemble performing at a variety of venues including large outdoor festivals, formal concert halls and intimate settings.  Because their music creates a magical space for deep listening as well as joyful celebration, they are often invited to perform at major events benefitting numerous social, environmental causes.  

Mystic Journey creates music that is not only critically acclaimed but has won them numerous awards such as the Independent Music Awards (twice), the International Acoustic Music Awards, and the Los Angeles Music Awards. Their music has been licensed for hundreds of independent film and video projects and was featured on NBC’s America’s Got Talent.  Recognized not only for their musicianship and high production quality, their recordings have been described as sacred, relaxing and heart opening and their work has been used in numerous healing recordings, films and videos, including a special CD compilation of their pieces created by the pharmaceutical company Genentech that was distributed to over 50,000 patients to aid in their recovery.
“Mystic Journey…lifts the listener to a place where beauty, ecstasy and tranquility reside” (Whole Life Times) both in recordings and live performances, as demonstrated in venues where they have performed such as the Dalai Lama’s International World Festival of Sacred Music, where they were featured artists each year of the festival.
