~ Channeling soulful melody ~
Ever since my dear Nana passed on New Years Eve 2010, melodies have been streaming through my soul. Her lifelong support of my music and the arts led to the birth of nine fully orchestrated songs with strings, horns, and choir. With the help of sixteen Portland musicians, we created a melodic meditation through intention and inspiration. (Full Sample @ maxribnerband.com )
~ In honor of our ancestors and elders: may we hold them Here in Spirit ~
