Larisa Stow & Shakti Tribe is an American new age and pop-rock band from Long Beach, California that fuses Western and Eastern music with English and Sanskrit mantra.
[4] In 2007, the band began performing concerts for inmates inside prisons and jails, teaching the concepts of oneness, community, and self-love.
The Shakti Tribe Peace Outreach Program was created to facilitate these prison events[5] which is sponsored by the International Humanities Center, a nonprofit organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRS Code.
In 2006, Del Grosso left the band due to health issues, and was replaced on bass by Cincinnati Ohio native Benj Clarke.
Walker left the band at the beginning of 2010 to pursue her own musical path, but stayed on board to sing backing vocals on the album Rock On Sat Nam.
