Jam Cruise 2016

From JamCruise.com
“Jam Cruise 14 cabins are now on sale! Join an all-star lineup of musicians along with some of the coolest music fans on the planet for another 5-day adventure at sea. Almost all artists will be performing two scheduled shows (artists marked with a * will be performing one show), not to mention the seemingly endless collaborations that will take place as we cruise to Belize and Cozumel. Jam Cruise features seven diverse venues throughout the ship, including the legendary Jam Room and improvisational Jazz Lounge with rotating hosts every night. In addition to the around-the-clock-music, Jam Cruise is full of interactive experiences and programs such as Masters Camp at Sea, Brews at Sea, guest chefs, autograph signings, theme nights, yoga, artist hosted activities, workshops, panel discussions, impromptu acoustic sets, intimate piano sets, and so much more!”

New Album from Lotus Titled ‘Gilded Age’

Posted on by

From LotusVibes.com
“When Mark Twain coined the term “The Gilded Age” he was describing the Reconstruction Era’s thin veneer that masked substantial social struggle. Nostalgia is like the gilded age of memory. It’s easy for the mind to increase the former glory, the perfect sheen, the once timelessness of present-day ruins.

On this album we wanted to occupy that powerful place of the human mind, the mental eye that can see erosion and cracks and envision a palace. We focused primarily on simple organic instruments: drum, bass, guitar, piano, percussion, played live in a room. The overall mood is one of reflective happiness, the joy of the impermanent, nostalgia of halcyon days.

 

Remixes from four superb down-tempo electronic producers take the nostalgia into deeper realms. The place where the brain starts reflecting on reflections and mixing together dreams and realities. Welcome to the Gilded Age.”

Album Releases July 22nd, 2014

Band Lineup
Mike Greenfield – drums
Luke Miller – guitar, piano, organ
Jesse Miller – bass
Chuck Morris – percussion
Mike Rempel – guitar
