Resonance CD Release Party
Friday, May 22 8:30 PM ~ 21+ FREE COVER!
Resonance is made up of multi-talented islanders that include, Ken Jacobsen on guitar and cello; Chip Lamason on guitar, mandolin, mandola, octave mandolin and mando-cello; Bill Moyer on percussion; and Jason Everett on bass.
“The music is nearly all original, instrumental, and very eclectic,” said Jacobsen. “We started playing together last December after an impromptu performance where we had a great time and decided to keep it going.”
Moyer, who many people know for his political work leading the Backbone Campaign has a long history of making music. “The Backbone Campaign and my family have been the dominant factors in my life for awhile. It is really refreshing to be playing music again, and with such a great group.”
“Resonance is a perfect name for this ensemble,” stated Everett. “Sound is simply resonation in space; however there is a spiritual connotation as well. Music is for many of us a spiritual practice.”
Lamason, who is fairly new to the island, is a musician and non-profit attorney. He used to live in New Orleans and was displaced by Hurricane Katrina. “It has been a real home-coming to find Vashon. The arts are vibrant here, the people are wonderful, and the scenery is beautiful.”
The music of Resonance is inspired by the diverse backgrounds and musical interests of the musicians and include the world rhythms and tonalities from Indian, Asian, Middle Eastern, and Eastern European styles, as well as classical, funk, jazz, and Appalachian folk music.
