Since his 2008 debut, East Forest has used the power of music to guide listeners through contemporary journeys of deep introspection. The electro-acoustic project has remained primarily a solo effort (of Krishna-Trevor Oswalt), straddling the worlds of ambient, neoclassical, electronic and indie-pop to help fans explore the vast reaches of inner space.

Whether via his Music For Mushrooms: A Soundtrack For The Psychedelic Practitioner album series, his collaborative spoken word album with Ram Dass, or one of his live communal “Ceremony Concerts,” East Forest’s goal has always been “building bridges and creating an approach that’s grounded, embodied, inclusive, and unarguable.”

His music uses art as a means for a message, but with his latest album Music For The Deck of The Titanic, the art itself becomes the message.

The album name is an homage to the infamous ship’s musicians who spent their last few hours playing songs for passengers facing the tragedy before them. Beautiful, poignant and extremely human, Music For The Deck of The Titanic is East Forest’s offering to the chaotic moment we’re all in.

“We just went through something where we thought as a people, ‘Is this the end? Will I die?’ I think that sometimes we gloss over that a bit, but it was traumatic and intense for all of us. In what ways can we midwife this process with beauty and honor, as opposed to just protecting ourselves? What can you do that meaningfully serves other people and is beautiful?”

This is an All Ages event.
