Ancient Future Dinner Show
The Ancient Future Guitar and Tabla Duet has performed in a variety of settings, from the huge audience (police estimate of 35,000 people) at the Summer of Love 30th Anniversary Celebration in San Francisco, to a standing room only three hour bar gig in Southern Oregon, to the Festival Internacional de la Guitarra on the golden coast of Spain near Barcelona. Tonight, Matthew and Vishal will be joined by Mariah Parker and Peter Van Gelder. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enjoy such a high level of musicianship in an intimate venue!
Gaia's Garden features an international plant based buffet with vegan and gluten-free options. Included in the ticket price is a fabulous vegetarian buffet dinner (samosas, tomato coconut curry, peanut ginger tofu, Irish Skillet, two soups - posole and dahl - green beans, beautiful salad, brown basmati rice, polenta and sauce, rainbow vegetables, house-made loaf bread and corn bread, halavah dessert and coconut tapioca. Beers and wine, as well as organic French press coffee, sipping chocolate and a variety of teas and soft drinks are available for purchase. Parking is free in the lot behind the building.
Ancient Future is the first and longest running musical organization dedicated exclusively to the mission of creating world fusion music. The term was coined by bandleader Matthew Montfort in 1978 to describe Ancient Future's unusual blend of musical traditions from around the world. Billboard calls the group "trendsetters" for their early contributions to the movement, which seeks to show how people from different cultures can grow by learning from each other.
World fusion is more of a process than a genre. It is a process by which new traditions are created, and has been going on throughout history. It would be difficult to find a form of traditional music that has not at some time been influenced by the music of another culture. But current times offer the opportunity for musicians to learn music from anywhere on earth. It is the mission of Ancient Future to explore this new sonic territory while shining a light on the ancient musical knowledge of the world.
