Spiritwell Live Gig, March 2020

As the impact of the coronavirus outbreak started to become apparent in mid-March, Spiritwell cancelled a show at Ohana Kava Bar and decided to take to live-streaming in hopes to get people on their feet, out of their heads, and into their hearts. The musical project, led by Austin Richman, brings original, heartfelt & diverse music and in this session along Erika de la Cuadra and Rebecca Burdick Meyer, offers music to dance to and chant to. Shout out to Tony Paul who we dearly missed that night on the drums! Please enjoy!
