Vedic Eden w/ Peasants Abroad - $5
Vedic Eden is a 7-piece Mystic Folk-Pop ensemble formed by composer Jaems Murphy in 2011. The members of Vedic Eden come from different musical backgrounds and that is clearly represented in their unique sound. Through the use of hypnotic guitars amidst layered vocal harmonies and playful percussion, they create a whimsical world of both wonderment and nostalgia.
Their newest release "Mono No Aware," tells a story of a traumatized soul making its way through the dark night of being into a realm of understanding. Lyrically, the story of -Mono No Aware- is an expression of love and liberation from fear. Musically, Vedic Eden tells the story of roots music as it has traveled around the world, from northern India to Ireland to the Appalachians where it merged with Native American music and culture and then infused with a low-fi 1960's folk-rock vibe.
Peasants Abroad performs a Turkish Fusion style of music - steeped in tradition and interpreted with our own unique experiences and tastes. The current band lineup has solidified to include Nazario Chickpeazio on oud , lavta and flute; Richard Miller on traditional percussion such davul, tar, and darbuka; and featuring Rana Regina belly dancing.
