The new album “Dharma is part of life’s journey.” Sebastián Yatra writes. “It is destiny. It is natural. It flows and it’s what is meant to be. It’s about accepting reality and receiving life for what it is.” The word dharma is the flipside of the more popular “karma which Yatra defines as “what comes to you in life for the things you do.” He continues “Dharma is a gift.” The good, the bad, the happy, and the sad are depicted in the music. “Although some songs are sad and others speak from happiness,” he explains ”they are all a part of our existence and love.”
When the singer and songwriter begins a project, he makes music from the heart and explores the sounds that touch those emotions.
