International musician, producer, and wellness leader East Forest (Music For Mushrooms, Ram Dass) will be performing and filming an exclusive, socially-distanced Ceremony Concert in Salt Lake City, UT, this winter (date TBA) that will meet and exceed both the CDC & ESA recommended health and safety protocols for social gathering.
East Forest Ceremony is a multi-level experience where concert meets ritual, merging live music and guided meditation—including songs from the East Forest collaborative album ‘RAM DASS’. Performed in the round with participants sitting or lying down, East Forest Ceremony is an intersection between technology, nature and the human experience—with a brain-body approach aimed towards a non-religious yet deeply spiritual journey—a methodology grounded as much in science as in ritual and ceremony. We will co-create a participatory sacred space for release and renewal while enjoying an immersive musical concert—mixing traditional East Forest songs with deep ambient soundscapes. The music and gentle verbal guidance by East Forest will guide you on an inner journey toward the wellspring of wisdom within. Through stillness and tuning into your own self-knowing, you will leave with feelings of tranquility, clarity and empowerment.
This Salt Lake City-based event will be held "in the round" at a thoughtfully-selected large-scale professional indoor venue (date and venue to be announced soon) with audience members radiating outward from the center stage in a beautiful mandala of yoga mats provided by local-SLC mat manufacturer and community partner, Hugger Mugger, with a minimum of 6 feet of social distance being maintained between all participants.
Masks will be mandatory for this event with additional safety protocol outlined in the public on-sale.
