bLACK sHHEP tOUR - Nowica sessions 1006-07.2016

Its a kind of community, many years ago some people moved and started living in Nowica. Now they are integrated as villagers, living and also working the earth, making gardens, and art. also being hostes for art, so during one year time they host a few festivals of theatre, music, and, many workshops of any kind, and their homes are always open. They have many ideas for living as alternative but not just as fashionable alternative. Its a beautiful place. They keep the tradition of local area, as a way to fusion in harmony with the surrounding nature, ancient knowledge of Polish small tribe. First time when we arrived to Nowica, we were participating in a festival which is located in the village hall. We played for 2 days non stop almost, in a chaotic but harmonic fusion with many musicains, of all ages. Some were playing guitar, drum, bass, sax, analog synth, trumpet, Tibetan ball, banjo, drum machine, voice, turntable, etc. There were few bands and many solo artists, but all ready to join and jam together without rules or limits. So it was possible and it went on and it went off and then on again and so on till in the end. Everybody played for the experiment of jamming without expectations. But the results were incredible and turned in a series of recordings and long lasting friendships. It was a creation process all the way, where, there is no competition. Since then we went back to Nowica many times and even tho the concept stayed the same and always we end up in long jams sessions the elements involved are somehow everytime new and surprising so the results as well are joyous and feeding our souls and imagination. Big thank you! To all the Wonderfull people that make all these possible and to all the people that we meet here. Cheers Rec in Oct, 2016, Nowica, Poland
