East Forest (@eastforest) is a multi-instrumentalist from Portland, Oregon. The project was created by Trevor “Krishna” Oswalt who derived "East Forest" from the German origins of his last name.  To date, East Forest has released eight full-length albums and six EPs. He has toured extensively throughout North America, as well as performances in Europe. His song, "10 Laws" has over 8 million plays on Spotify. Not long before Ram Dass' death, Oswalt collaborated with the spiritual teacher and incorporated the recordings into an album. East Forest's latest collaboration with Jon Hopkins also features a recording of Ram Dass and is titled “Sit Around the Fire.” It's a series of contemplative statements, backdropped with ethereal meditative sounds.
