Drum Class on Sunday and World Music – Vocals & Harps – on Monday

Greetings,

Our motto 10 years ago was “drums are cool” and we still feel that way.

We are excited to be presenting a 3 series Rhythm & Drum workshop series at the Paradise Theatre, starting with a Women’s Drumming and Men’s Drumming class both this Sunday the 22nd. Both David and I get a lot of folks asking us about group classes and when we will offer more, how to connect with rhythm, or go deeper, or mentioning that they want to play, or mentioning that they have always wanted to learn to drum. If this is you, please answer the call – this class series is especially for you. more info below

David and Dylan Fixmer had tons of fun rehearsing, performing and hanging out with Glen Velez and Loire Cotler while they were in town earlier in September. While in town Glen and Loire recorded a Talkin’ Music show at KVNF and it will air twice this week on Thursday 6pm and Saturday 10:30am. You can listen live 90.9fm, or via the web at kvnf.org or find it in their digital archives anytime after this weekend.

Here is a video from the concert of one of Glen’s original tunes, Hittite Prana, with David (on hybrid frame drum kit) and Dylan (on mandolin) jamming with Glen and Loire.

Up next, we have a very cool quartet from Finland coming to perform in Paonia for a special MONDAY evening concert on September 23rd (this Monday) as part of the World Music in Paradise Concert Series. The group, Kardemimmit, is composed of 4 women vocalists whom also play the Finnish national instrument, the kantele (different sized wooden harps) and they sound like a magical Finnish forest, playing original material based in the Scandinavian, Balkan, and Eastern European traditions. Highly recommended. If you are interested, feel free to check out their videos on their website.

We hope to see you soon.

blessings,
Arlyn & David
