Hello all!
On the 20th of June I am holding a Summer Solstice Song Circle. I host community songs for the solstices and equinoxes. Hooray! Here are all the details for the day.
LOCATION:
https://maps.google.com?q=40.6674661,-73.9693866&entry=gps&shh=CAE&lucs=,94297699,94231188,94280568,47071704,94218641,94282134,100813464,94286869&g_st=ic
TIMING:
We will gather at 7ish pm to set up our circle. We will start the explanation and singing at 7:15 ish. We will do two sets of singing (about 1 hour each) with a break in the middle to chat, hang out, etc.
SAFETY and logistics:
This event is FREE. You are welcome to Venmo me a few dollars to help me pay our drummer! @gendersauce on Venmo
You are welcome to wear a mask! I will not be wearing one so people can see my lips move. Please DO NOT COME if you are sick. I recommend doing a home test today to make sure we're keeping each other safe.
Children/infants are welcome in the circle as long as they are sitting with their parents/guardians.
VIBES:
Please bring water and something to sit on (blankets, cushion, whatever makes you comfy). Bring snacks if you want them. WEAR YELLOW if you want. You are welcome to bring flowers, candles, or anything else that feels like it will help make our circle magical. Our first song session will be warming up our voices and leaning into play. You're welcome to take photos or record as long as you're present with the group/yourself. The second song session will be leaning into reverence and magic. Please don't take photos or videos during that time .
If you've never been to a song circle here's what you can expect:
There are lots of ways to hold one-- loose and informal, serious and reverent, jammy and full of instruments. This one is probably somewhere in the middle of the silly to serious spectrum. This circle will be led by me, there will be lyric sheets for those who want them, and we will primarily be singing acapella, simple chant songs. Sort of a jam session for human voices.
All human beings are musical. Whether or not you consider yourself a "good" singer, you are wanted in this group. All ages, races, genders, sexualities, and experience levels welcome, welcome, WELCOME. I absolutely cannot wait to sing with you. Bring your friends!
P.S. As a reminder, all of my events strive to be safe for people with marginalized identities and are in support of global liberation. Zero tolerance policy for racism, xenophobia, ableism, transphobia, homophobia, fatphobia, Islamophobia, and antisemitism. Free Palestine, Free Sudan, Free Iran, freedom for all peoples.
