About
Also known as: Jolantha Fries
Deva Premal has built her entire musical identity around Sanskrit mantras, weaving ancient chants into ambient and world music that reaches way beyond the yoga studio. Born Jolantha Fries in Nürnberg, Germany, she records and performs alongside her partner Miten, and the two have been touring together since 1992, offering concerts and chant workshops. Her voice, a warm contralto, carries weight: Cher used her version of the Gayatri Mantra on her Farewell Tour, Edward James Olmos handed out copies to the Battlestar Galactica cast, and Russian prima ballerina Diana Vishneva danced to her music. She and Miten even performed for the Dalai Lama in 2002. Her 2010 recording with the Gyuto Monks of Tibet stands out as one of her more striking projects, featuring eight mantras each chanted 108 times. Her 2018 album Deva earned a Grammy nomination for Best New Age Album.
