Disha

Disha

Born in Germany in 1969, Disha traveled over land with her mother from Munich to Bombay in '77, and spent her childhood years living in India with the enlightened mystic, Osho.
She lived in the USA and in Italy in her teens, always at home traveling the world, until '96 when she settled in Australia. She spent the last ten years exploring both her passion for music and love for working with people in leading singing workshops, Path of Love Intensives and youth seminars worldwide. In '97 back in India she studied the ancient art of Drupad-singing with the world-known vocalist Sayeed'uddin Dagar, from "the Dagar Brothers". The combination of a life of meditation with Osho, the devotional style of Drupad, and her many western influences of music - Sarah McLachlan, Morcheeba, Lauryn Hill, Everything But the Girl, Lamb, Alanis Morissette - inspired her to start writing songs on the guitar, working on her own music at home in the Wilson's Creek rainforest near Byron Bay, Australia. Collaborating with Dutch-born musician and producer Bhakta, she devoted her heart & soul to recording a debut album. Innocent, sensual and with a deep gratitude to existence, she sings her song on "Drowning in Grace".
Disha is currently working on her second album with Bhakta, performing around Australia, and she was nominated for a Dolphin Award for best Female Vocalist in NSW. She has just completed a degree in Counselling and become a civil marriage celebrant, as well as offering Youth Seminars, in Byron Bay.
