Through her music, Coltrane explores themes of spirituality, love, and universal oneness, inviting listeners on a transcendent journey of self-discovery.

In a world oversaturated with cookie-cutter pop stars and formulaic hits, Alice Coltrane's music stands as a beacon of individuality and artistic integrity.
