The Offering - A RockOm Compilation, Vol. 1 is a musical ride through the lands of spiritual rock, metaphysical pop, ethereal world music and conscious jazz. These twelve tracks from featured artists at RockOm.net ("the crossroads of music and spirituality") were woven together to tell a narrative of consciousness turning inward, meeting what's within and journeying back out. The artists and songs on this compilation span a wide array of diverse styles and genres, yet hold a common thread as each proclaims a spiritual truth or essence, drawing the listener to that which is deeper than surface-level.
[BONUS] In addition to the twelve album tracks, The Offering also includes seven bonus tracks including additional cuts by the artists, a track from RockOm's president Trevor Harden, a spoken word piece and a guided exercise.
[IN ADDITION] - A portion of the proceeds from The Offering will go to support the Seva Foundation (www.seva.org).
All 19 tracks (12 album tracks + 7 bonus tracks) now available at CDBaby for only $13.99. Click the "Buy Now" button on the right to purchase The Offering from CDBaby.
