By Thy Grace: 25 Years of Mantra
North America & Canada Tour 2026

In 2026, Snatam Kaur brings By Thy Grace: 25 Years of Mantra to audiences across North America and Canada. This is a continuation of a decades long journey of shared chanting, prayer, and healing through sound.

These concerts are gatherings where stillness, devotion, and collective voice come together to create an experience of oneness and healing. Each concert begins gently and meditatively, building into moments of deep joy and powerful celebration, and finally, ending with stillness and prayer. Together, we will chant the mantras and songs that have held us through life’s greatest challenges and joys, honoring their capacity to bring us back to ourselves time and time again.

The title By Thy Grace reflects the heart of this tour. After twenty-five years of recording and sharing her music, Snatam views this work as something carried by the grace of the mantras themselves, the musicians and collaborators who helped to bring them into the world, and the communities who have welcomed these songs into their lives. What began in humble beginnings as unfamiliar sounds to her audiences, has become a living language of healing, known deeply through personal experience.
Accompanied by her band, Ram Dass (piano, clarinet, vocals), Bruno Justi (guitar, flute, vocals), and Sukhmani (percussion, vocals), along with some surprise guests, Snatam will share music spanning her discography, featuring well known classics as well as deeply personal songs from Snatam’s history that have never before been performed live, spanning 25 years of music that has become a soundtrack for healing across generations. Each night becomes a remembrance of inner stillness, shared humanity, and of the healing power that arises when voices join together.

This tour is an invitation to gather once again, to chant together, and to celebrate the grace that continues to move through these mantras and through all of us.
