Sita has been leading chanting in the US for the past 25 years, and also in Singapore, Ubud, Bali and India. She started within the Hindu tradition of kirtan and then expanded out to all traditions to reach broader audiences. She blends sacred poetry into her evenings, weaving a tapestry of chant and spoken word that is both powerful and celebratory. She has been a teacher in the art of chanting for the last five years. Her classes allow people to become more fluid in their own ability to sing.

A native of Ireland, she feels that her voice comes out of her Celtic roots; its full resonance harkens to an ancient, earthy form of song. She is a disciple of Neem Karoli Baba and has performed with Krishna Das, Ram Dass, and Baghavan Das.

Remember the lips
where the wind-breath originated,
and let your note be clear.
Don't try to end it,
Be your note.
I'll show you how it's enough.
-Rumi
