COME STIR IT UP✨
Sara Tone will be joined by the gifted voice, deep heart, and witchy-ass spoon paddling of Ayla Realta, and the deeply talented expressions of Samara Jade
-Portland based musician, educator, and activist, Sara Tone shares her love songs for the Earth as a multi-instrumentalist. Expressing herself through voice, guitar, baritone uke, kalimba, ocarina, and an assortment of percussion instruments. Her style ranges from deep heart rooted fae-soul, world-folk, with an undeniable hip-hop approach. (Read: dorky choir kid with a strong ear taught herself lots of instruments to try to express and share the nature inspired symphony she hears and feels intensely).
You’ll often find her building musical expression into sonic reality through live looping, blending harmonies, beat box, and a quiver full of instruments. More than songs, there’s an intention and vibe created and held, a collective power of presence and gratitude that the this music emanates and amplifies, a prayer, a spell, a sonic stream to soak your soul…
