MaMuse, Ahlay @ BALLARD HOMESTEAD

June 9 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm

MaMuse: mamuse.org

Join MaMuse for an evening of music and song to uplift the spirits and rejuvenate the soul.

MaMuse (“Ma” as in Mamma; “Muse” as in the one who inspires) is coming to Seattle on the Force of Nature tour with their band to share harmonic, uplifting, luscious, folk-soul: a musical tune-up for the heart.

Wholeheartedly fed by the folk and gospel traditions, MaMuse (Sarah Nutting and Karisha Longaker) create uplifting music to inspire the world into thriving. Interweaving brilliant and haunting harmony with lyrics born of honed emotional intelligence, MaMuse invokes a musical presence that inspires the opening of the heart.

Playing a family of varied acoustic instruments, including upright bass, guitar, mandolins, and flutes, while backed by guitar and keys, these two powerful women embody a love for all life. The synergy created through this musical connection is palpable and truly moving to witness.

“Weaving extraordinary voices with surprising syncopation, MaMuse’s soulful folk commitment is evident with every note.”

”Vocal bliss” — Dan DeWayne, California WorldFest

With fifteen delicious years of co-creation and five full length albums under their belts, MaMuse keep their hearts tuned to the creation of music for the health of ALL BEINGS.

The evening will kick off with the beautiful songs of local musician Alexandra “Ahlay” Blakel. Ahlay is a descendent of Ashkenazi, Scandinavian and British folk. She is a singer-songwriter, grief tender, community organizer, facilitator and ceramicist walking the path of ancestral healing and the reclaiming of lost cultural memories.

Come one, come all, and invite your friends to weave a tapestry of joy and connection together through song.

“Ahlay is a song carrier and grief tender. She blends song, body percussion, dance, stillness, breath and silence with the deepest intention to support others in remembering their inherent birthright to singing and rhythm. Sung collectively, ahlay’s songs are invitations to move stagnated emotions through our bodies” -Artist Bio
