A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH SOLAS The Boston Herald called Solas the "The Best Irish traditional
band in the world." But they aren't so traditional now as
they infuse their music with contemporary rhtyhms and songs by
such anceint bards as Bob Dylan and Tom Waits. Solas comes to
the Echoes Living Room to play their new music live, exploring
instrumental Irish aires, tales of Black Annis and a song by The
Youngbloods. Headed up by Seamus Egan playing electric guitar,
Solas weaves their Irish fiddle, button accordion and acoustic
guitar with the voice of Irish champion singer, Diedre Scanlan
in a magical performance.

BOBBY MCFERRIN: OTHER VOICES Bobby McFerrin is a chameleon vocalist. His career began by
imitating acoustic instruments, but over the years he's evolved
a sound more like a global language, an esperanto of the soul.
He's played with artists like Chick Corea and Yo-Yo Ma and conducts
classical orchestras around the world. On his latest album, Beyond
Words, McFerrin creates a series of vocal vignettes, over-dubbing
his voice, playing synthesizer and featuring guest appearances
by Corea, Gil Goldstein and Richard Bona. Now living in Philadelphia,
Bobby McFerrin speaks in words about his latest album, BEYOND
WORDS (Blue Note).

WILL ACKERMAN-PLAYING GUITAR AND HEARING VOICES Will Ackerman built his career as a solo acoustic guitarist,
founding Windham Hill Records 25 years ago and launching the acoustic
guitar renaissance of the 1980s and 90s. On his new album, HEARING
VOICES (Windham Hill), he uses his plaintive guitar melodies to
underpin exotic and ethereal voices from singers including Happy
Rhodes, Heather Rankin, and Samite. Singing in Native tongues,
imaginary dialects and occasionally English, HEARING VOICES has
a hymn-like quality. Will Ackerman reveals the voices in his head.

SCOTT AUGUST'S VIRTUAL NATIVE MUSIC Scott August talks about sending Native American flutes into
virtual space on this edition of Echoes. Scott August isn't a
Native American, but he plays their flutes on a new album called
DISTANT SPIRITS (Cedar Mesa Music). Scott spends most of his time
scoring soundtracks for TV commercials, but in his Los Angeles
bedroom studio, August takes his collection of Native flutes and
deploys them over digital atmospheres of the desert southwest
with recordings from Canyon de Chelly and environments of the
imagination. Scott takes us into a music that begins in a closet
and ends in a canyon.
