Singer/songwriter and wanderlust Mama Gina feels most at home when she can feel the earth beneath her feet and taste the freedom of the open sky. With down-to-earth, bluesy vocals, a bit of humor, and straight-ahead, rhythmic, acoustic guitar, she tells the true stories that fall into her head and heart. She sings of life, death and rebirth. She sings of holding on and letting go. She speaks to the Gods and Goddesses and they speak back. She sings their stories as they become her own. She sings of her spiritual connection to the natural world, and of our responsibility to nurture both the mundane and the magical.
When she is not performing, you just might find her camping in the woods seeking inspiration from the earth beneath her feet and that vast, open sky.

She often transforms right on stage into one or more of her alter-egos-whose antics typically leave the audience howling with laughter. With powerful, heart-felt vocals and wacky comedic improvisations, the audience never knows what will happen with Celia on stage.
Celia has opened for notable authors: Neale Donald Walsch, Marianne Williamson and Dr. Masaru Emoto, provided live music for the Off-Broadway production of Rum & Vodka, & has received a “Best Storytelling CD” nomination for Irish Tales by the International Just Plain Folks Awards (The Grassroots of Grammies).

Celia’s range of styles and entertainment is far more than a concert. It is more like a full Cabaret.

Belthain is a Pagan Folk band from Salzburg, Austria. Around Samhain 2005, they began work on their debut album called The Wheel. Organic and constant, this wheel turned for twelve whole years and created a cosmos of songs woven from the celtic pagan wheel of the year. Layer upon layer was opened, slowly growing the work as a whole, as rings grow to form a tree trunk. This continual transformation of the ancient spinning Wheel was a welcome guest in their creative process.
The magical combination of the hammered dulcimer and flute forms the foundation of their sound. Epic timbres melt together into nine pieces saturated through profoundness and time. An accompaniment of unusual instruments – the Fujara, alpine horn, cow horns, and frame drums completes the unique, individual soundscape.

Robin Renée began this leg of her musical journey with In Progress (2000), which was applauded in much alternative press across the U.S. All Six Senses (2002), stands as the real-life chronicle of one caught in the act of cosmic transformation. It was produced by Scott Mathews, who has worked with artists as fabulous as George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Elvis Costello, Patti LaBelle and many more. Live Devotion (2007) is Renée's first recording dedicated wholly to sacred chant and continues to receive spins on independent radio plus Pandora, Live365, and Krishna Das Yoga Radio on SiriusXM.
The sum of Renée's accessible tunes with a spiritual twist forged her own genre - Mantra-Pop - and its development can be heard across the sounds of spirit.rocks.sexy (2009), a compilation of her solo efforts to date plus the lyrically arresting, AAA radio-friendly "The Other End of the Line" and bluesy "You're In Demand."
This. (2012) begins in the centered, energetic place of Live Devotion, and takes the listener onto a spiritual trail, perhaps akin to the one the singer traveled during the making of the recording (with accomplished engineer/composer Jack Walker). As Live Devotion is more of a "happening," This. is a thoughtful beckoning through a blend of chant and sacred song in an acoustic and synth soundscape inspiring stillness, joy, and inquiry into the heart of living. "Keshava" soothes with its many harmonies as does the fun and upbeat "Kali Ma Potluck Singalong." The beautiful "Blessed Be, Namaste" bridges East and West with earth-centered and yogic blessings.
In July 2013, Robin Renée released the digital-only single, "All I Am." A portion of proceeds from "All I Am" support the anti-bullying You Will Rise Project.

Once upon a time, a kid from down and out St. Louis, MO, packed up his beater car and came out to Washington State to study composition at Evergreen. 40 years later, he’s still in the Pacific Northwest, composing, performing and recording.
Since then, he’s done everything from acoustic folk through jazz, rock and orchestral pieces, but he always comes back to writing chewy, complex pieces that remain melodic and accessible while taking your mind to different galaxies.
After two acoustic solo albums, Bingham and his wife, Sue Tinney, started the seminal Pagan band, Gaia Consort in 1997. Pagans loved it, but after four critically acclaimed records, it was time to expand the audience. So - a new name.

Living in the witchiest city of Canada, Victoria, BC, Brazilian-Canadian Femi Heqet aka Mohana and Canadian Robert Johnson formed Hekate's Torch in October of 2017. At the end of 2018, they rescued their “familiar” Ebony Heqet-Johnson, who became the Meowstro of the band, showing up in all their jams and unexpectedly appearing in two of their videos.
In 2019, they invited Canadian multi-instrumentalist Lana Rummel aka Venus and Japanese drummer Minami Tsuji to join the band. Together they filmed the music videos for "Dance With Me" and "When I’m With You".
Their first song, "Sacred and Profane", which is also the title of their first album, really motivated them to create a body of work that was meaningful and fun. Their next song, "Dance With Me", was more lyrical and thought provoking. But only when they recorded their third song, "Hekate's Torch", that things shifted gear, and they decided to challenge themselves recording their first music video. The experience changed their performance and how people saw them. Their song "Chains", is another shift in how they want to present their music and message to the world. Then they recorded "Playground" and made 2 versions of it, one in English and one in Portuguese, followed by “When I’m With You”, also in English and Portuguese. Coming next, "The Forgotten Shore" also became a video and finally "The Next Wave" was the last song recorded in their debut album.
So follow the witchiest Meowstro you'll ever meet to: https://www.hekatestorch.com/

Brian Henke composes and performs his music like a painter putting images on canvas, drawing his inspiration from the world around him. An avid hiker, he often brings his guitar along to create a spontaneous response to his outdoor settings. Mother Earth (Terra) as artist has given an immense living gallery from the humbling spectacle of her natural wonders to the simple, beauty of a treetop against a blue sky. Her majestic legacy and the magical feeling of awe and peace inspire the compositions of this award winning virtuosic fingerstyle guitarist.
His unique guitar style has been called everything from Folk to New Age to Neo-Classical to Pastoral or as Brian likes to call it “a big stewpot of everything, stirred up, simmered and served to taste”. His music appeals to anyone who like their music lyrical, thought provoking and performed with virtuosity. Through it all is an undercurrent of spirituality and mysticism that Brian says is very much apart of the creative process.
