10-15-20 Today on Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #414, we present an hour of improvised visionary acoustic music with the Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, acoustic 6 and 12 string guitars, ukulele, harmonica and native flute, Robin Rooney on djimbe and vocals, Craig Harris on congas and native drum and Bob Sherwood on piano. Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in October of 2020, today’s show begins with the uplifting and uniquely American-sounding “Every Moment Is A Treasure” featuring beautiful piano from Bob and Mariam’s expressive harmonica. “Vision” is a beautiful, peaceful and deeply emotional ballad driven by Mariam’s expressive vocals and acoustic guitar, and “Believe” is a mysterious and powerful vehicle for Mariam’s native flute and lovely vocals from Mariam and Robin. “Keep Walking To The Light” is a mystical exploration built over Mariam’s somber acoustic 12 string guitar featuring a steady, driving conga groove from Craig. Wrapping up today’s show is a trio of gorgeous renditions of songs from Mariam’s 2015 album “Vision Quest”, the anthemic “Restore”, a delicate take of “Rainbows” and concluding with the lovely and evocative “Sail On”.
