A native of the New York metropolitan area, Radha made her mark early in her career in music as the co-leader of a jazz group, the Spirits of Rhythm.

During a trip to London, Radha's interest in world music began. She was encouraged to develop her talents in this direction by the West African band Osibisa and former Fleetwood Mac founding member Peter Green. Over the years, her love of the indigenous music of many cultures has grown through her extensive travel to Eastern Europe, India, South America, Africa, the Philippines, Australian outback,Cuba and the Caribbean. As an ardent seeker of Truth, Radha has combined world music and devotion, singing in English, Sanskrit and—reflective of her Cuban heritage in Spanish. During her two decade long association with Alice Coltrane, her spiritual and musical mentor, Radha has learned how to sing beyond what her "mind" allows and to go vocally where her "heart" takes her.
