Big Survivors are a music-improvisation collective based in Big Sur, California.
Over a full moon weekend in the Spring of 2021, we gathered in a barn overlooking the Pacific to record two albums, Mantra and Yantra, tracking each live to 8-track tape. Yantra is a collection of original reggae—upbeat songs that will make you want to laugh, smile, and dance with a friend. Mantra, a set of Sanskrit and Buddhist mantras laid atop a grooving live band, is reflective spiritual music... that also makes you want to move.
Both records feature the emotive songwriting and lead vocals of Peter Konikowski, partnered with backing vocals of his wife Krystle, and the grooves of Benjamin Andrews,Shaun Elley, Lauren Henry, Cordell Spencer, and Nick Leahy. (A full list of credits is detailed below).
Big Survivors plays live occasionally in California for special events. Recent shows include The Chapel (SF), Henry Miller Library (Big Sur), Golden Bough (Carmel), Monterey County Art Museum (Monterey).
