Acoustic concert in Ocean Shores

Posted by on 17 Jun 2010 | Tagged as: Blog

Tibet2Timbuk2 had a lovely little show at my regular Ocean Shores home concert venue, Paul Kimmel’s “Temple of Melodious Sound” last weekend. Unfortunately due to a number of factors – the cold weather, many people going to the Dreaming Festival, late organisation and lazy promotion – the audience was shall we say “exclusive”, but regardless the natural sound in Paul’s place is marvellous and that exclusive audience were very appreciative of our music. It was also a really nice chance to jam with some of my Indian classical friends, Armando Ornano (bansuri) and Tahir Qawwali (vocal). Yuki (who prepared the atmosphere with some beautiful mantras to start) took a few videos too, so here’s Crane Song: Sorry about the video quality – the lights were very dim.

Tibet2Timbuk2:
Rollicking Tibetan folk, afro-reggae guitar grooves and intricate Indian tabla…  Sounds as if they were made for each other!  Together, Tenzin Choegyal, Marcello Milani and Shen Flindell create a new joyful sound that transcends cultural boundaries.

“This is a combination of Africa, India and Tibet, that, for all its unlikeliness, has resulted in a musical masterpiece.” (Mike Raine)

Tibet2Timbuk2 has an eclectic repertoire resulting in an overall sound which is full and organic.  All three musicians share melody, harmony, bass and percussion roles to create a solid yet easy groove.
