Portable Shrines

TONIGHT

From a meditative murmur to an orgiastic outcry, vocalist, bandleader and charismatic costuming queen, Janina Angel Bath, spins a dizzying halo of exotic rainbow sound and sight about her. Accompanied by an ever-changing tableau of spirited fellow musicians and cosmic travelers (on Sitar, Harmonium, Tabla, snake flute and whatever suits the occasion), Janina Angel transforms the stage back into the haze and daze of the wonder that once was.

Currently based in Oakland, psychedelic songstress Janina Angel Bath is a former member of Portland’s Eternal Tapestry and has toured with Seattle’s Midday Veil.  A student of North Indian classical vocal music and Native American flute, Janina’s current musical project revolves around her hypnotic, spiritually soothing melodies and enchanting, minimal accompaniment.  This afternoon at Wall of Sound, Janina will be giving a free instore performance in support of her limited edition LP Gypsy Woman, currently available from Prophase Music.  The show begins at 6 p.m. sharp, and Janina will be giving tarot readings beginning at 5 p.m.

If you’re in Portland, be sure to catch Janina tomorrow, July 29, at Dunes (1909 NE MLK) with Datura Blues and Midday Veil.
