Hi Folks ... Instead of creating our usual grooves that intermingle on the drums, we will do the same, but with our voices in a very playful, intuitive and spontaneous way, improvised on the spot. Much of this exploration will be influenced on work I have done with Bobby McFerrin, who created his Circle Songs method. Quoting McFerrin ... "It's primal, unadorned singing. I've always felt that singing a song without words makes one song a thousand songs because the people who hear it can bring th …
