Ottmar Liebert returns to PAC on Sunday
Wednesday in Seattle
Took a cab out to radio station KWJZ in Bellevue for an interview with Jay Phillips. Enjoyed chatting with Jay, and it was nice to see the “The Hours between Night + Day” poster in the station – one of my favorite albums.
After the first show at the Triple Door, Robby (who played a lot of percussion on “The Scent of Light” an was in Luna Negra in 2004) and his brother Char came backstage to say hello. They are in town to play at the Musiquarium tomorrow night.
Check out the announcement here. If you are going out Thursday evening I would encourage you to check them out as both are very fine musicians and great people. This week Seattle is getting a double-dose of Santa Fe music!
Instrumental Storytelling
Recordnet.com: Instrumental storytelling drives the music of Ottmar Liebert
“I’m not really looking for continuity,” Liebert said of Luna Negra. “I enjoy the different personnel shifts and the music they bring. It keeps me insistent (((I think I said interested, but we talked via mobile))) because each time (there are new members) the music has to be adjusted and played differently. The fans get a new interpretation of it every time.”Liebert’s sound has long given record store owners (or iTunes programmers) fits over where to stock his music. A fusion of world beat, flamenco, jazz, new age and classical, it stubbornly refuses to settle into just one suitable category.

Monday in Santa Cruz
Not feeling well today. Caught some kind of bug, I think.
At noon Stevo and I appeared at KUSP, the local radio station. Played four songs live, and spoke with the nice host, who also gave away a “The Scent of Light” CD.
