Nada Brahma - the world is sound - originisnow.
We work with structured sound designed to invite and explore reflective meditation, human reaction, intentional creation and is influenced and inspired by the current manifestation of our species. An invitation to engage in authentic listening and inspired evolution and to create positive social change to uplift the consciousness of humanity. Our overwhelming need to address things visually can be balanced with the wholeness of sound – we just need to listen without distraction. Sound is everything – Nada Brahma – everything is sound. We learn to listen to our minds, our bodies, and the universe. Sound – The Origin Is Now.
Music has the power to transform our emotions, attitudes, spiritual moods, relationships, perspectives, passions, knowledge. We should support this part of music and elevate it above the goals of entertainment. Social, philosophical, psychological and spiritual changes are the groundwork for our development and growth and cannot be measured in dollars. Changing our consciousness and awakening from past nightmares and traumas to embrace true love is the way to divert our collision course with our limits.

Oliver's moving on ...
It's been a fun and crazy ride with Oliver during the last two years but now it's time for him to follow some other path. We will miss you, Oliver. It's been a blast! To keep us going we will have Stu Goodis join us on guitar - an outstanding player who is already showing his commitment. Cheers!!!!!!
Boathouse was a blast!
What a beautiful night of music, reflection and celebration of our great mother - the ocean. Thank you to all who made it out and packed the Boathouse Collective in Costa Mesa - truly the coolest spot for live music. Add great food and drinks and you can't go wrong.

It's going down early this month - 2nd to last Wednesday in October at the historic Blue Beet Cafe in Newport Beach.
Sunday Afternoons - better with jazz and wine.
The Blue Beet Cafe is always a good time at the end of the month, this one the beginning of fall. We got some new pieces to play. Always listen.
We've been here a few times as duo and trio format. Sundays are a nice time for some afternoon wine tasting and jazz. See you there!
Late summer's a beautiful time and this Wednesday we'll be back at the Blue Beet to celebrate the here and now. Just letting go and listening.
Tell no lies, claim no easy victories.
Every Last Wednesday of the Month we hit the Blue Beet Cafe and offer up a musical incantation to the spirits of this earth. Presence, Awareness and Curiosity are our guiding principles this month. Libations and nourishment available.
Last Wednesday of June at the Blue Beet Cafe by the pier in Newport Beach. Always a good time. This week - The Long Road.
The Tao of Jazz - redShift & The Authenticity Show - Concert & Podcast
— —
Concert & Podcast - The Tao Of Jazz,
Life as improvised structure ... in music and words. We riff and play off of each other, deepening the meaning of the conversation. Rhythms and tones grow rich with meaning, just like familiar words. One informs the other when we listen. We improvise upon the structure of language, of music and life with suspense, surprise and fulfillment.
Last Wednesday in May - summer's just around the corner. Blue Beet's always solid.
First time at LaCave with redShift - great steaks, seafood and cocktails - and the music starts when the kitchen closes. Cozy and intimate - come to listen or dance.
Coming up on that last Wednesday again. April’s just about done - come hang with some live music.
Peace at Peace, we had to move from our treasured Last Wednesday to Tuesday, 6th of March. Join us getting ready for spring.
Crazy January - time to wind down, seeking inspiration. #livemusic,#creativemusic,#TheBlueBeetCafe
New Year - New Tunes. Starting 2018 out at the coolest spot in Costa Mesa.
Happy Holidays from redShift - we will be saying goodbye to 2017 this Wednesday, Dec. 27 - the last Wednesday of the month and of the year. Join us for some post holiday fun. This week Stu and Dannie will be performing redShift in duo format and will be joined by special guest 'Paula Gabriel' for a few standards. For 2018 we will continue our Last Wednesday of the Month shows at The Blue Beet Cafe.
Last Wednesday in September - what now?
