| Balance: a state in which various elements form a harmonious whole and nothing is unduly emphasized at the expense of the rest. |

| Jahna began her musical journey as a soulful expression of the emotions flowing through her mind; thus was birthed her most recent solo CD, In The Balance. Ever reaching for a more perfect blend of New World musical vibes and established classical Old World compositions, Jahna’s sparkling voice comfortably bridges both realms of this new musical groove. | |

| Jahna’s creative exploration was rewarded when In The Balance charted a No. 2 single in Japan, while the entire CD charted to No. 4. ‘Flower Duet from Lakmé,’ a popular track from In the Balance, was then featured on Showtime’s highest rated drama series, The L Word, and was eventually published on the official The L Word: The Third Season Soundtrack, from which it charted as the soundtrack’s No. 1 download on iTunes. | |
These successes led to Jahna’s featured performances at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles as part of the NocTOURnals program, her opening number for fashion designer Sue Wong’s extravagant Los Angeles show at Mercedes-Benz’ Fashion Week, her sold-out shows at the world-renowned Knitting Factory in Hollywood, her performance (with Acoustica) at the Celebration of Oneness festival, and her live radio singing and interviews on Los Angeles’s KPFK 90.7 FM’s The Global Village, Seattle’s KZOK 102.5 FM’s The Bob Rivers Show, and Las Vegas’s KLAV 1230 AM’s SoulSearch.
Jahna also sings lead vocals for Acoustica, an ensemble that specializes in classical and original music with a world-music flair and spiritual influence, featuring Tibetan meditation singing bowls, East Indian tabla, Middle Eastern kawala, flute, harmonium, bass, and acoustic guitar. “Acoustica utilizes the components of world and classical music in combination with original pieces written by Michael Perricone, Acoustica’s founder and music director,” says Jahna. “We perform songs in English, Italian, French, Latin, and even Sanskrit. It’s thrilling to see this music move and excite people in all kinds of settings.”
