Garris, Dyan
Orenda: Breath Of Angels
The single, "Every Time You Breathe" (feat. Juliet Lyons VOX), charted #3 at One World Music Radio (OWMR) in September 2020. Two tracks from the album - "Forest Whispers" (charted #10 at OWMR in September), and "Timeless Traveler"- were included in the compilation album by M-Sol Records/Guido Van Der Meulen, "In The Zone." In January 2021, the popular app, Insight Timer, featured the title track from this album, "Orenda" on their home page as an Editorial Staff Pick." The music was written and performed by Garris on three different keyboards, a Korg Triton Extreme, Korg Krome EX, and a Yamaha MOX8. Two tracks, "Water For The Soul" and "Home," are remixes. All the music has a "theme" of breath or breathing, soft breezes, like angel kisses, perhaps, and "lightness" of spirit in general. We CAN effect change in the world by vibrating to and staying in a place of light and love. Music helps. These tracks were designed for exactly this. The album features guest artists Sherry Finzer (flute), Juliet Lyons (VOX on "Every Time You Breathe"), Rebekah Eden (ethereal VOX), Tony Garviz (guitars on "Gentle Traveler"), and Louis Anthony deLise's string arrangements ("Home)." The music was produced by John Herrera, Clamsville Productions, Chandler, AZ.
