Winter solstice is the darkest day of the year. In the darkness, there is an opportunity to let go of things that no longer serve us. It also represents the return of the light, and there is an opportunity to call in what we need.We look forward to celebrating this opportunity to heal and set our intentions for the year to come. Bring your bright spirit to help us collectively illuminate the darkness together.
Jaffna
Jaffna is an acoustic, ethnic fusion ensemble that plays original music. This Philadelphia-based world music ensemble combines instrumentation and influences from the Middle East, India, and anywhere else that inspires them. With roots in the early 1990s, the group maintains its distinct style with original compositions and improvisations that stretch the boundaries of their respective cultures. Jaffna has produced 2 CDs of original music and its members maintain a high level of activity in many world music projects such as Barakka, One, Hindugrass, Arehm and Atzilut.Jaffna musicians have created a musical universe with oud, guitar, tabla, and dumbek, where they can all argue, eat and stay good friends. Along with the strong Mid-East and Indian flavor come unmistakable flamenco, rock, Balkan, and jazz influences, the result of jamming in and around the vibrant Philadelphia world music scene for years.
GRUPO SUMAK DE PHILADELPHIA
We are a Philly-based band made up of immigrants from Latin America. We play music inspired from Peruvian chicha and Colombian cumbia and infuse it with the grit and flavor of the beautiful city of Philadelphia. We like to get people dancing in joy and rebellion as we play hypnotic grooves and psychedelic electric guitars.
