Sprung

Dear friends,

March has pretty well blown us away this year. Everyone, in every way. All the more reason to sing and dance. A lovely equinox, great full moon. Lives ending and beginning. Amazing accounts of community in the face of devastation. We will only get through together - Celebrate the awesome energy of spring! 

Winter recording projects are maturing. Gora Gora will be in the studio soon. Kailin Yong Peace Project is entering into the second phase of recording and I am very excited about the results! Lionel Young Band album is for sale and George Inai Curious Ghost part 1 is about to hit CD Baby. 

Meanwhile out in the air, Naropa Afropop Ensemble will soon give it's first public performance. Stay tuned for a rare appearance of Veelah Hot Balkan Ensemble. Gora Gora will perform in Denver soon. Plans are well underway for coast-to-coast tours of the Lionel Young Band. Join in offering up some vibrations that are not of an explosive nature. We definitely have variety, no problem there! 

Hope to see you soon,

Dexter
