May 19, 2014

Adelita’s Way put on a hell of a show yesterday at Rock on The Range. They definitely have the power to drive an entire festival crazy! They really put on an incredible set and even singer Rick took a ride crowd surfing during their set. They have also just announced the official date of July 29th for the release date of their new album, Stuck. To create the album, the Las Vegas-based quartet joined forces with the Grammy-winning Nick Raskulinecz (Alice in Chains, Foo Fighters, and Queens of the Stone Age) and holed up for eight weeks of nonstop recording in a cabin deep in the woods outside Nashville. Stuck is now available for pre-order on iTunes HERE.  Exclusives bundles are now available for fans on www.adelitaswaymusic.com and include several instant downloads and collectables.

That is all there is to it.  The idea of combining NASA photography and video from space with music and dance is sheer genius. That’s exactly what he did in creating the live performance known as Bella Gaia – “Beautiful Earth” now on its world tour.    Bella Gaia shows how humans and nature are connected, and how art and science are connected while it explores the relationship between human civilization and our ecosystem through time and space in a music and dance performance like no other.  The video is stunning, the music is mesmerizing, the dancers and the costumes rival those of major city opera companies.
