Tina's newest release, The Silent Awakening, is her sophomore
album of original material. It follows in the footsteps of her
first album with multi-faceted world instrumentation, yet
features a deeper rhythmic flavor with African percussion,
marimbas, cajon, Indian clay drums, kalimbas and drum kit, as
well as piano, violin, cello, guitars, pedal steel, hammer
dulcimers, and lush vocal arrangements. Her cast of musicians
includes some of the greatest players in the fertile west
coast music scene including: Greg Ellis of Vas on percussion,
Darol Anger on violin, Robert Powell on guitars, pedal steel
and dobro, Sasha Butterfly on vocals, MJ Greenmountain from
Hamsa Lila on percussion, and many more. Tina herself plays
piano, guitars, marimba and hammer dulcimer, and once again
proves herself a talented multi-instrumentalist, writer and
producer.
The Silent Awakening is a journey of a woman's coming of age;
the story of a girl as she wakes from a dream of being lost in
a lonely world and finds herself in a palace of the earth's
delights with the sky as her limit. Inspirational, uplifting,
magnetic and moving, the Silent Awakening accentuates the pure
and enchanting, as well as the deep and luxurious tones of
Tina's magnificent voice.
