About Me

Daphne is a soulful singer/songwriter currently calling Bali her home. Originally from Texas, she explored music through many venues & was drawn to the west in 1994 (relocating to Los Angeles, CA). Since her initial yoga class, she has explored merging her spiritual practice with her contemporary folk singer/songwriter style. She has played for numerous yoga retreats in India, Greece, Guatemala, Costa Rica and now Bali. She studied folk music at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago and kirtan music with Jai Uttal and Daniel Paul in Guatemala. She is currently working on her full length album in Bali with incredible int'l and local musicians. She has released tracks on yoga music compilations on Sounds True and yoga DVD projects on Acacia with Shiva Rea. Her new CD (ep) "Mata" was released on July 5th in Asia and contains 3 extended tracks: Mother Teresa, Saraswati Mata, and Magnificence. Mata is now available in the US and beyond at www.cdbaby.com/daphnetse or on iTunes!
