   About Ariel Thiermann
Ariel Thiermann is a California-based singer, songwriter and teacher whose work is rooted in the ancient art of song making, vocal improvisation and story telling. She has performed throughout the US and internationally, both solo and with her award winning a cappella trio Mayim, and has released five albums spanning 15 years of her work as a musician. Drawn to the transformative power of harmony and the musical traditions of indigenous cultures, she has recorded songs from many countries including Bulgaria, Mexico and Zimbabwe. In addition to her explorations of vocal cultures from around the world, Ariel writes eclectic originals that include spoken word poetry and ‘introspective and dreamy epics’ sung at the piano. Her music has touched a broad range of audiences: she has played in a variety of venues from jazz clubs to concert halls, sharing the stage with such artists as Zap Mama and Compe Segundo (Buena Vista Social Club). Her latest CD Behold has been heard in over 4,000 Starbucks cafes as well as in the popular program Photoshow. In the words of one critic, she moves in the territory “once occupied by such icons as Joan Armatrading and Laura Nyro.” Performing music of “depth and passion married to nuanced musical arrangements.”(Wallace Baine) A performance and vocal coach for over a decade, Ariel has guided people from all walks of life in the discovery of their voice. Combining vocal improvisation, breath and movement work as well as songwriting, she has co-written and recorded over 200 original songs with her students. For Ariel, creating music and singing in community dissolves the illusion that we are separate, allowing the vision of a more harmonious world to emerge. This philosophy of music as medicine, aligning and integrating mind, body and spirit informs both her teaching and her art. Currently living in the Santa Cruz Mountains, Ariel travels widely to lead singing circles and vocal improvisation workshops in the US and Europe, and is presently writing her first book titled Vocal Collage to be released in 2009. You can check out her CDs both solo and with her trio Mayim and listen to more of her music at http://cdbaby.com/cd/ariel2 or her website http://www.arielsong.com

Hi:....I went and changed my profile song to Ms. T's "Into The Clouds." Who knows how long it will stay there? I don't...:)! Ditto for it spinning on my freeform webradio playlist...I can say no more. If I continue it just might evolve into a rave... Consideration for the neighbors, you know...:)! Enjoy! ~JBK

Ariel,

The name of my favorite mermaid, and also a woman who is devoted to music, peace and serious bravery. Thank you for your kind words, as I have also deeply enjoyed your music. My sister will be moving to Santa cruz this fall term to attend college. She is beautiful and I know she will discover a new world there, hopefully around people like yourself.

Peace and blessings to you, may all the good things be yours. Best wishes~
