You are invited to attend the amazing Techno-Tribal Community
Dance Saturday night, June 9th, immediately following the first
day of the Health & Harmony Festival. This year, the Saturday
Night Dance is happening in a new location at the Grace Pavilion
on the Sonoma County Fairgrounds, right next to the Health &
Harmony Festival, just off Highway 12 in Santa Rosa.
Beginning at 7 pm the evening will include dance, multimedia,
performance art, and techno-tribal dance music with nationally
known trance dance band, Lost At Last. The evening will begin
with a performance by Lumin, a popular Bay Area band that fuses
the realms of the ancient and the modern. Using a combination of
Bulgarian Choir, Sufi Trance, drum and bass, and down tempo
grooves, Lumin expands the elements of world electronic music.
The evening continues to pulse with the techno-pagans of
electronica, Medicine Drum, fusing exciting techno-rhythms with
Native American drum and songs. The performance will also
feature the Native American group Eagle Spirit.
There will be outrageous performance throughout the evening
featuring dance, circus sideshows, multimedia, ritual theater
and art. Featured performers include Fontain's M.U.S.E.,
Oddvillian Side Show, Art of Spirit, Majinga The Magician,
Calliope Stilt Troupe, masked dancers, aerialists, and much
more. There will also be state-of-the-art multimedia, video, and
light shows.
Participants are encouraged to bring to the Health & Harmony
Saturday Night Dance a spirit of interaction, connection,
playfulness, and expression. Colorful dress and spontaneous
performance is welcome. A natural foods cafe will serve dinner
starting at 7 pm, and the Healing Temple will offer a retreat
space for rejuvenation through relaxation and massage.
Lost At Last, will continue to elevate the evening with a Trance
Dance experience beginning around 10:30 pm. Lost At Last
delivers a synergistic blend of ancient wisdom (Sufi, Vedic,
North American, Afro-Mediterranean, Gypsy) and various world
music styles (pop, rock, trance, funk, folk) set to trance-
inducing electronic dance grooves. Timeless, tribal world music
blended with the dance grooves of a club remix. Conceived in the
garden beauty of Maui, Hawaii, Lost At Last is a total
experience--a journey that takes you into the depths
of musical expression and ignites a deep connection with one's
heart and soul.
* This will likely be Lost at Last's only Bay Area performance
this summer!
