Trance Mission

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Trance Mission is a World Music band with a jazz foundation, playing primal, techno-tribal music in a similar genre as Jon Hassell, Steve Roach, and Robert Rich. Stephen Kent, the band's leader, is one of today's most respected and prolific didgeridoo performers, bringing the ancient Aboriginal sound into a contemporary context. Past members have included Kenneth Newby, John Loose and Beth Custer. Kent has performed both solo and with Trance Mission at the Starwood Festival, and both he and Peter Valsamis have offered workshops there. The present line-up includes Peter Valsamis on drums & electronic programming, Eda Maxym on vocals, Geoffrey Gordon on keyboards, harmonium, percussion, and vocals, and Rufus Cappadocia on cello.
