Anmara (Annabeth)

This event is part of Charlottesville Arts Festival at IX Art Park. www.ixartpark.org Have you ever been to a music performance and wanted to lean back, shut your eyes, and soak it all in? Looking out over audiences at Yoga Festivals and outdoor meadow concerts, Annabeth noticed her music was being absorbed in lotus position. Fans kept saying how relaxing her music project, Anmara, was, and she started to be described as "synth Enya." That's what prompted her to innovate an ultra-peaceful soundscape set of her most down-tempo songs for people like her who seek out rejuvenation and calm-- a music experience where they can let go and go deep within. You're specially invited to a swirling journey blanketed in ethereal looped harmonies, cocooned within the other-worldly Looking Glass venue. Bring any of the following for maximal comfort: a yoga mat, blanket, bolster, meditation cushion, chunky sweater, cozy socks... Whatever you need to feel comfortable as you dive deep into the healing power of live music. The word Anmara refers to an extra-celestial place we can cultivate- a state of harmony and openness that allows us to rejuvenate and reinvigorate our love for life. Pilgrims to Anmara seek the ineffable divinity that can only be touched through song.
