You are invited to our next concert on Aug. 23rd, featuring the group Rim of the Well celebrating their upcoming album "Gratitude," on Octave Records. "Gratitude" (as it says in the liner notes to this record) is like a candle dispersing the dark." Rim of the Well performs a unique brand of Flamenco Fusion featuring the unusual timbral combination of guitar (Steve Mullins), marimba (Doug Walter), violin (Sandra Wong), and percussion (Carl Dixon), with Sam Morgan joining on mandolin on a few numbers. They perform compositions by Steve Mullins derived primarily from Spanish Flamenco, but with Eastern European, Latin American, jazz, classical, and other influences. There is no other flamenco group in the world with a sound quite like this! The band gets its name from the writings of Federico Garcia Lorca who describes art and the creative process as something that requires risk-taking and danger, dancing, as it were, on the “rim of the well,” with the ever-present possibility of the plunge.
