Sacred Valley Project provides a dormitory, meals, school fees, uniforms, supplies, and tutoring so that high school girls in remote areas of the Andes Mountains can complete their secondary education.
A Silent Disco is an event where people dance to music heard through wireless headphones. The music is transmitted directly to each person’s headphones – on three separate channels – rather than played through speakers. Those without headphones hear no music (other than people who sing along to what they are hearing). The three channels of music can be selected using a simple switch on each person’s headphones, and headphones light up blue, red or green to show visually what channel you are listening to. People can dance to the same tune as others with them, or to their own selection. If you hear a song you don’t like, or get tired of a particular style of music, just switch channels.

Julian Douglas, World Percussion

These performances are not focused solely on polished repertoire, but rather on the process of musical creation. We will be developing our distinctive blend of contemporary and traditional world music, innovative arrangements of popular music, and original compositions.

These events offer an intimate perspective on the band’s interplay, experimentation, and the organic evolution of our music, demonstrating where structure intersects with spontaneous discovery.
