• Welcome to The GAIA Project

    Welcome to the GAIA Project website where we celebrate the absolute best in American Roots music. From veteran performers to emerging singer-songwriters and groups who are just starting to test their wings, it is our goal to help bring these outstanding performers to the people of the Greater Northwest. We seek to promote any genre of music that has its roots in the Americas. This includes a variety of musical styles: from folk to country, from blues to zydeco, from bluegrass to traditional jazz, from latin to jug band. If you are interested in seeing live music performed by entertaining and talented people with something to say, then I encourage you to check out our upcoming concerts.

An Evening With Holly Near

(After having such a successful show with Holly in Portland last October, I decided to see if I could produce her show in the Los Angeles area.  Fortunately, all of the logistics worked out.  Thus, I’m promoting this rare concert outside of Oregon.  If you’ve seen Holly perform before, you know what a special show this will be.  If you’ve never seen her live, don’t miss this.  It will be a night to remember.)

Along with her musical compatriot Pete Seeger, Holly Near is unparalleled as an artist who, throughout her career, has walked the walk as well as talked the talk. She is a unique combination of entertainer, teacher, and activist. Near’s career as a singer has been defined by an unwillingness to separate her passion for music from her passion for human dignity.
She is a skilled performer and an outspoken ambassador for peace who brings to the stage an integration of world consciousness, spiritual discovery, and theatricality.

Please join us in Pasadena, CA at the Neighborhood Unitarian Universalist Church on Friday February 8th, 2013 to help celebrate the release of Holly’s new double album in a rare full-band show.
