I’m Ananda Xenia Shakti, and Intuitive Inter-Dimensional Healing Artist and the lead singer/ songwriter for Love Power the Band. I currently spend most of time in Mother India, in the city Vrindavan engaged in Bhakti Yoga, a path of Awakening through song, dance and devotion to the creating source residing within each one of us.
Love Power The Band is a party for the Soul and the Body. After my successful career in the punk scene, touring with the Clash numerous times, and singing background vocals with Blondie in live performance and in the recording studio, as the lead singer in an all girl punk band I discovered the teachings of yoga and never looked back. I found a place to take my high spirited energy and love and directed it towards creating transformational music, Music created to break through limiting barriers in consciousness, by offering vibrational healing, expanded love and Unity Consciousness
I was the singer in an all girl punk band in NYC called the B Girls, in the late 70’s early 80’s. We had a deep innocence and a lot of luck .We showed up in NYC from our native Canada, all excited to play our first NY gig, but the city closed down because of a snow storm and everything got cancelled. We were determined not to leave until we played NYC. We went to the owner of the famous CBGBs and told him our story, he listened with a kind ear but said there was nothing he could do for us. Wishfully we kept coming his club every night. He grew to like us and did something he never does. He created an opening spot for us on a weekend gig without even auditioning our band
Providence activated and the Clash showed up at CBGB’s the night we were playing. They loved us and wanted to support us, and invited us to be their opening act for their London Calling Tour on the Eastern seaboard of USA and Canada.
Deborah Harry from Blondie also took us under her wing. She took us into the studio as our producer.and we sang background vocals with Blondie live and one of their albums. Debbie even came to our gigs to be our sound engineer dressed in costumes to disguise herself as she was at the height of her career.
It was an exciting dream come true kind of life !
Yet in the midst of all of this I found yoga and then my first spiritual mentor. I had an awakening and it when it happened I knew I had found what I was looking for and that everything I had sought previously in life was an attempt to find this Reality all of my searching, the adventures, the substances, the relationships, the seeking of fame, had all been me trying to find Creation or God.
As a young girl, I used to have an experiences I would call ‘the sinking feeling.’ Something would happen, like an energy would activate from my belly and I would feel completely alone in the Universe. I would sit by myself and just try to wait until it was over. While it was happening I would think of famous people, idols, etc. and imagine I was with them hoping it would take the sinking feeling away. I understood later that ‘the sinking feeling’ was what unconsciously sent me seeking fame and association with ‘Idols’ …. until one day as a teenager I was siting with one of my big ‘Idols’ of the time and ‘the sinking feeling’ happened ! I realized then nothing from the outside could take it away. But I didn’t know what could take it away, or it anything could, yet it propelled me to keep seeking.
When my Awakening came I knew this was it, the cure, or the real orientation in life.
I left the Bgirls when we were just on the edge of being signed. It was a a big communication to express to the others girls, but actually not a big choice for me. I found what I was looking for ! And a i vowed to play music again but only if it would help others in transforming the pain in their lives, rather than the more common version of music that reflects the pain.
This is how Love Power the Band was born !
Each song has a unique sound that paves the way it aligns itself to Love. Our invitation to join in the healing vibe speak through the songs in different ways, through Beauty, Beats, Fantasy, Mystery, Psychedelic Waves, and of course Love ! It was hard to choose a category for the music, so we went for ‘World” but if check some of our reviews below you will see a common comment that we have create our own genre and we are offering it inspiration. We hope you will be moved by the love, vibration healing and inspiration in each tune.
A Love Power The Band concert is a unique happening . When Performed live our songs
become Interactive Music where the hive that gathers for the show is given a part in the song
and holds that down, dissolving the barrier between performer and audience and handing
the show over to the music and the oneness . Interactive Music symbolically holds our vision
of love, life and oneness. I believe we are born of the Song of the Divine and our truest hearts longing is to reunite with the Divine Song, we exist to remind each other . By remembering the Divine Song we can change the world. Music is one of the greatest inspirations for transformation.I
We do this Because we are ONE, ONE HEART, ONE BREATH, ONE SONG ,ONE BEAT, ONE DANCE !
Our first CD was a few years in the making, many obstacles were dissolved to bring it to form, time, finances and planetary locations of the band members. Yet as Creation will always have it the timing has been perfect ! The first single we released from the CD ‘I Am Love’ landed in such perfect harmony with the times, lifting many people from the heavy and confused life experiences they have been encountering during Lockdown and the times of churning and change of paradigms on Earth.
My heart has been touched deeply by the numbers of people that have reached out to let me know they or their families have been dancing around the house singing ‘I am Love’. This is truly the purpose of this collaboration of Art and the Higher Realms.
We’ve had 2 singles that charted number 0ne!!! and 2 that have charted 2 & 3 on the UK I Tunes charts on their release date! It’s so exciting to be sharing the power of love. We believe we are here to Awakenen and that music has a big part in that. Music can bring us closer to our Angel heart…. I know this first hand as I have spent much time in inter-dimensional communion.
I would like to celebrate the Dear Personalities that are part of Love Power the band sound Yogi Shambu drums and percussion, Premadasa Gangadeen guitar and bass , Niranjan Gundu guitar and bass, Adi Kanda background vocals, Markos Ordonez bass, Ras Groundation Congas, Snappy Homefry Kipp production and engineering, Saakti on production and engineering, their spontaneous abilities to creatively express the songs I receive through my channeling, are paramount in giving Love Power the Band its unique sound. Thank you all for the creativity, love and inspiration you have shared !

CD AND BAND REVIEWS
CHARTED # 1 ON ITUNES UK NEW AGE CHARTS on its release date !
˜The vocal performance in Psychedelic Halo is nothing short of enchanting. Ananda Xenia Shakti’s voice glides over the instrumentals, leading the listener into the heart of the sonic maze.
The result is a harmonious balance that mirrors the nuanced interplay between the physical and the spiritual, leading to a liberating crescendo that fades away gracefully.
The production quality of Psychedelic Halo’s embodies the perfect harmony of sound, and Love Power the Band has commendably succeeded in seamlessly weaving together spirituality and psychedelia.
The production quality is immaculate, allowing each musical element to shimmer through with absolute clarity while preserving a raw, resonating energy within.’

“Shakti’s music is the sonic embodiment of a daydream, taking you places you never knew you wanted to go, but are overjoyed once you’ve arrived.”
This is strikingly apparent in “Songs from Source,” where every word and note resonates profoundly.

Every song and video when you create it becomes your favourite and this one really is magic for my Soul, I hope you feel it too !!
“No More Limits.” This innovative music video has been designed as a healing experience for the viewers. The song's unique message, paired with visual artistry of the music video, aims to take you on a unique journey towards exploring new horizons.I first 'received' the song during a spiritual journey to Machu Picchu 15 years ago, and was told the song was for the Big Shift that was coming. I have been guided the time is now to unveil the video that further activate the song's spiritual message.
I wanted to create a Galactic/Inter-dimensional, timeless vibe in the video, so we shot it in a very special 'art park' in Toronto that has pieces of old buildings, lots of nature and open sky, to create timelessness. We added a powerful energetic healing technique throughout the video called 'Light Weaving" so that by watching the video and hearing the music you will feel inspired beyond your perceived limitations. and perhaps even experience a transcendental state of personal healing and evolution.
Please feel free to share what you feel watching this !

Award Winning Music Video, Best Music Video, in the Golden Lion International monthly Film Festival 2022
In my humble experience of life all feelings of being incomplete can be resolved by knowing 'Love Is Where You Are.' This video was shot in the Holy City of Rishikesh India a city that was built for the practice of Yoga , where the sacred river Ganges flows with might and blessing energy. The Ganges river appears many times in our video, as one of the many blessings energies. People often ask about the provocative line of the song 'Sex Yourself, Sex Yourself pollinate your inner lotus. This is referring to turning inward to find the Living Ecstasy of knowing 'Love is Where You Are.' Like wise 'Feel the Pain and Don't Blame' are the map for Liberation and Joy as a Human Being. These are New Earth inspirations that lift the heart and soul to Love and Oneness.

Ananda Xenia Shakti
Ananda Xenia Shakti & Love Power the Band Celebrates “Festival Of The Goddess” with their World Wide release of the Music Video “Devi" their music video Devi celebrates the Indian festival of Navratri. Filmed on location in India,
Ananda Xenia Shakti is a unique musical artist who is strongly influenced by Indian culture and spirituality. She is now releasing her latest music video on September 28th, 2022. Titled DEVI the inspiring and spiritual music video was filmed in the Indian City of Pushkar, which is regarded as one of the top 10 holiest cities in India. With a backdrop of India’s beautiful temples and topography, Ananda Xenia Shakti performs Devi with all her heart and soul. The word Devi translating to
Goddess and Divine Light in the Sanskrit language, this song is an ode to feminine divinity and power.
Ananda said, "The vibration of the song lifts the heart and mind so that each moment of life becomes a Divine communion with the Goddess. Most of the images you see are filmed around the sacred lake. The reverence for life that permeates the atmosphere is tangible in the footage. Devi is an emotionally-charged yet simple and stripped back acoustic song that relaxes the mind, and helps people tap into their spirituality."
She continues, "Navaratri is the biggest festival of the Goddess that is celebrated on earth. It is a time to celebrate the active power of Creation, which is a feminine principle, of the Goddess Herself. During the nine-day festival the Goddess's grace shines brightly on song, dance and deep meditation and on the sublime light that lives within every heart."
Created in Celebration and Support of the Divine Feminine and Humanity Rising !!
Devi is a Sanskrit word that means Divine Light and it is use as a name for the Goddess
I would like to tell you a little bit about one of the tracks, Radha's Grace. About four years ago I was travelling in India by rickshaw to Radha Kunda a sacred bathing water made by Krishna for Radha. It is probably my favourite place in the world. The energy is simply all expressions of love and bliss, its so wonderful.
On the way there the Rickshaw driver ,knowing I was a devotee of Sri Radharani began playing a compilation of Radha songs (bhajans) on his sound system. A tune came on that just took me over and I held my phone up to his speaker recording it on my phone. If you have ever been in a rickshaw in India you will know the quality of the recording was terrible, the rickshaw and the street noise over powered the song.
I knew i wanted to sing the song and to record it so I travelled around Vrindavan for 4 years playing this terrible recording for people :) They all basically said the same thing. Madame we cannot hear this, we don't know what the song it but its a local singer, who they didn't know the name.It was super frustrating and disappointing, and when I left Vrindavan again, with out the song one more time, I remember saying in my prayers Radharani ji why don't you want me to sing your song, I don't understand, I love you so much.
When I arrived in Toronto I contacted one of the the Swamini's of a local temples affiliated with a temple in Vrindavan because my last lead in V said why don't I ask at that temple. One of my bestie's Andrea Olivera also spoke to one of her clients from the temple and between the two of us the song was found !!! It turns out that it was one of their Guru's songs. They not only knew the song but would teach me it and offer a gathering based on understanding the song for me.
I was so elated, Radha's Grace had arrived and not only was the song found but I was being taught it directly from the source. So this song means so much to me and it is the first time I have sung in Hindi, which I know isn't perfect, the language, like all spoken dialects, has many idiosyncrasies, I had to make some choices and do my best.
