Far Pharis and Near East


Pharis & Jason Romero have thrilled and mesmerized audiences over many years with a melodic and instrumental blend of sounds from the higher altitudes. Radiating out of their mountain home, where they build the instruments that they play, the healing qualities of their music are at work again on Sweet Old Religion, a new collection of all-original tunes, out today.

 Calling in from over the Rockies at 5:30, we will get a chance to hear from Pharis what they have in store for the summer, and to listen to a few samples of the new music, which you can also hear here: The Fretboard Journal


Near East are very excited about their upcoming CD and vinyl launch at the Small World Music Centre on Saturday May 19. So much so that they will be Orbiting live on Radio Regent Friday at 6:00 Join Ernie Tollar (sax/bansuri/ney), Demetri Petsalakis (oud/guitar) and Ravi Naimpally (tabla) for some live sounds that will actually appear so much closer than they are.

The launch will also feature guests Tamer Pinarbasi (qanun) and Majd Sekkar (clarinet). Remember to buy tickets in advance from www.smallworldmusic.com 

Doors open 7:30PM / Show 8PM
Tickets $20 Advance / $25 Door
