Lara played several songs from her new album with Sherefe at Ozo's coffee house Saturday, Feb 2nd. What a great time! Sherefe had the entire coffee house on its feet, dancing wildly to their inspiring traditional Turkish/Greek/middle eastern tunes.

The CD includes seven original songs, plus the Sri Mahisasuramardini Stotram, and a traditional melody from Spain. It features Balkan music sensation Jesse Manno, who produced the CD, with Lara.
