MERGING BLUE
While many associate and give credit to the blues coming exclusively from the roots of slavery , it appears to be much larger. Listen closely to a cantor in a synagogue. Listen closely to an ancient Native American Indian chant. Listen deep in the heart of Applachia. Immerse your soul in the sounds of the history of mankind and you'll soon hear a theme of desperation and pain and release from all colors and corners of the world. Crying out in the air, calling out to their Creator, pouring out to their lover or about the loss thereof. Regardless, it's bigger than we think.
So from the Bronx, West Texas and the Great Northwest comes Merging Blue. Three vocal stylists that bring unique individuality to weave textures together that form something even greater side by side. Different colors of skin, different stories, different voices merging into a oneness of humankind. Themes that run deeper than words. A common thread that sings to the soul and reminds us that we're all on the same journey from cradle to grave. Singing something, feeling something, walking somewhere that many before us have walked as well. Roads converging, themes of humanity converging. Shall we say, merging in themes of blue.
