Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #180 features Mariam Massaro on vocals, celtic harp, native flute, percussion, native drum, harmonica and ukelele, Dameron Midgett on violin, mandolin, Tibetan bowls and didjeridoo, Robert Sherwood on piano and congas and special guests Bri Elizabeth and her baby son Wakenyan on vocals. We begin with the watery, languid “Wonderful, Beautiful” featuring Mariam’s sweeping harp and mysterious sounds from Dameron and his bowls. “Plant Your Seeds To Harvest” is essentially a further exploration of the themes of “Wonderful, Beautiful”, a harvest of ideas as it were, featuring beautiful native flute from Mariam and imaginative piano from Bob as well as evocative violin from Dameron. We slide straight into the compelling “Song Of Love” through a lush motif featuring didjeridoo and native flute. We follow the break with another languid, summer-scented piece called “Spread Your Wings And Fly” featuring compelling poetry from Mariam and lyrical mandolin from Dameron. The playful, sprawling final song today is “Windy Windy Waves” a piece in two parts featuring Mariam’s island-inflected ukelele and the vocals of Bri Elizabeth and baby Wakenyan.
