Life has felt, at times, like drowning and flying at once — tragic and beautiful.
Music has been a lifeline.
These songs formed slowly — through love and loss, playing and listening, breaking and mending. They brought me comfort. I hope they do the same for you.
With gratitude to the Eternal One, to my family and friends, to the musicians who gave their gifts to this record, and to you,
– Shem
Shem is a multi-instrumentalist and producer whose music draws from American folk, blues, rock, and jam, Afrobeat, jazz, reggae, mbira-inspired guitar, and Jewish spiritual traditions. His travels through West Africa, East Africa, and Israel helped shape a groove-driven, heartfelt, improvisational sound. After decades of private dedication, this album marks his first public release. He is currently working on his next project.
