TALAMANA
TālaMana is:
Jim Matus, with Latvian singer Laila Salins, http://www.lailasalins.com who recently toured with her highly acclaimed project “Tango-Ballads: NY-Riga”. Also joining us is the celebrated world music percussionist, Shane Shanahan (Silk Road Project, Glen Velez) www.shaneshanahan.com). TālaMana is currently developing music for the Amber Road Project (Dzintara ceļa projekts). The name of the group draws from the Indian rhythm concept of tāla - which also means “distant” in Latvian - both deriving from Sanskrit roots.
