We are excited to announce the release of Reverend Heng Sure’s newest album: Urban Lotus: American Buddhist Folk Songs Vol. 2.
Urban Lotus is our second go at setting the Buddha’s Dharma teachings to Western melodies, played on six- and twelve-string guitars, banjos, and an octave mandolin. The title of the album references how Venerable Master Hsuan Hua opened monasteries in the heart of major urban cities along the West Coast and highlights the nature of the Buddhist symbol: the lotus flower. Lotuses are rooted in the mud but their blossoms stand above the mud and water, pure and undefiled.
Listen to previews of the songs and learn more about Reverend Heng Sure’s newest album on the Urban Lotus page.
Urban Lotus is available on Bandcamp and all major music platforms: Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube Music and more.
