Join us for another song circle led by Samara Jade at the Well. This time, being right before the winter solstice, the theme will be Midwinter - embracing the shadows and darkness amidst the longest nights of the year, as well as welcoming back the light.
Samara will take us on a journey in a prayerful container through warming up our voices and then teaching easy-to-learn songs to sing together as a group - songs to honor our inner and outer winter, the darkness, shadows, grief, as well as welcome back in the returning light and amplify our intentions. Songs to help find belonging to each other, ourselves and the natural world.
Most songs will be sung together as a group, and there may be a few songs sung by Samara in which participants are invited to lay back, receive and introspect.
Open to all levels of singing and musicality. And ALL of you is welcome here.
The Well, Asheville
Tuesday, December 19th
Doors open at 6:00, singing container 6:30-8:30pm
By donation $15-25, no one turned away - please come even if you can't pay, if you need the medicine of song and togetherness!!!

About Samara:
Samara Jade is a multi-instrumentalist folk troubadour - a writer, crafter, performer and producer of soul-centered songs that deliver medicine for the moment in catchy and memorable sonic bundles.
Born in the Hudson Valley of New York state, and shaped by the mountains and rivers of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina and the Olympic Peninsula of Washington state, Samara has been a grass-roots style touring folk musician for over a decade, spreading her songs all across this country and weaving and widening the webs of community. In addition to having released four full-length albums along the way, Samara plays in the Washington-based folk trio Three Wheels Turning, teaches songwriting workshops and community singing circles, and does work as an audio engineer/music producer for others.
To Samara, music is a primarily a healing practice - with many of her songs born out of and made for her own journeys of grief, underworld spelunking, connection with the natural world & transformation - and she derives great joy and fulfillment when her songs turn out to provide good medicine for others as well.
