MACHINE PROJECT @ LACMA – PREMASOUL REHEARSAL

Sheela Bringi, Clinton Patterson, and I were luckily given time and space to rehearse in the South Asian gallery at the LACMA the night before the big show. It was wonderful playing for the gods and goddesses, we felt very energized and open. The warm colors, lighting and the overall solemnity of the space came alive with our improvised pieces. The next day, both Sheela and Clinton escaped fires in Valencia only to be stuck in traffic for hours…we were blessed by their presence later in the day, and the audiences truly enjoyed the PremaSoul performances.
