LIFE IN BALANCE: SPINNING BOWLS

Tibetan singing bowls have been with us for a long time. Life In Balance is a Pittsburgh-based duo that trades the metal bowls for quartz crystal bowls and mixes them with flutes and electronics. Life in Balance are Steve & Ami Sciulli: Steve handles the flutes and electronics, while Amy uses the bowls you won't find in any kitchen. Their music ranges from deep meditative drones to the electronica dance grooves of their latest CD, STAR. Life in Balance shows us the way.

LOREENA MCKENNITT: A JOURNEY TO SOUND & SOUL

Loreena McKennitt is steeped in the story-telling traditions of folk music, the poetry of Tennyson and W.B. Yeats, and a love of the Celtic harp. She launched her career in 1985 when she released a cassette of her songs called ELEMENTAL. Now nearly two decades along, she's an international artist cited by musicians across the world stage as an influence. It's been 5 years since McKennitt made an album, but her entire catalog has recently been re-issued. We look back with Loreena McKennitt on a music that tracks from Canada to Ireland to Morocco and beyond.

KAKI KING'S STRINGS

Her guitar is almost bigger than she is, but Kaki King makes you forget her size when she starts playing her six strings. She created a sensation last year with her debut album, EVERYBODY LOVES YOU (Velour). She returns with a new CD, LEGS TO MAKE US LONGER (Epic), that shows an evolution in her already formidable skills. Kaki King talks about big changes in her music in a short time, and reveals more of her eclectic background which includes electric guitar and lap steel guitar.
