Adey Bell & Mikey Pauker

Lloyd Barde Productions & The Marin School Presents:

Singer/Songwriter Showcase Series #1: Adey Bell & Mikey Pauker

Two incredible artists to launch this new series of creative excellence and finely-crafted musical artistry from emerging artists with a lot to share and sing about!

Adey Bell (http://www.oracle88.com/)

The multi-talented Adey Bell is a vocalist, pianist, composer, and actor. As singer/songwriter she joins the ranks of such solo female virtuosos as Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan and Joni Mitchell, blending classically influenced piano composition with raw lyrical reflective intimacy. Her repertoire of soulful, intricate & sophisticated original material makes her impossible to classify. The daughter of two concert organists, and a consummate performer, she lures audiences with her textured, melodic piano and warms them with a voice as gritty with soul as it is soaring with ambience and mystery. Adey is a "Shadow Shaman"...

Adey's independently recorded and produced debut, Rogue, was released in 2011, followed by Vesica, in 2013. For the last eight years, her one-woman show has been adored at venues throughout the US, including festivals, conventions, clubs and private parties. She is the star and composer of the forthcoming feature film "The Last Avatar" from Sacred Mysteries. She is currently touring regularly in California, Oregon and Colorado.  Watch Adey here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmnjVGOgLcY    

"The woman is marvel and a wonder, and her music is nothing short of pure magic." — Satatma Tischler

"I've had some of my most profound experiences of music EVER listening to Adey's music. "If I cannot see, will you come to me? And dream..." (lyrics by Adey, from "Power"  — Michael Ellsberg 

"Like an alchemist creating gold from lead, she vocally leads us through a complex maze of transcendence with complete command of her instrument.”  — Jesse Boleyn

Mikey Pauker (http://mikeypauker.com/)

How do you channel divine experience and Jewish mysticism to others? For Mikey Pauker, the answer did not stop at yoga or Torah and Chassidic text study (which he practices daily). Instead, Pauker chose to share his spiritual love and light with the world through music.

Mikey’s “spirit and roots” music is a seamless blend of folk, electronica, pop, positive hip-hop, and reggae, weaved together by Pauker’s divine experiences with ancient texts that pulse through the artist’s veins and enter listeners’ hearts. Pauker’s beautiful melodies and unique lyrics convey his desire to connect people with their inner light.

His songs and live performances bring to mind elements of Bon Iver, Trevor Hall, Nahko, Xavier Rudd, Michael Franti, The Civil Wars & Imagine Dragons while creating a heartfelt and soulful fusion that’s both bumping and exalting.

Pauker has shared the stage with Trevor Hall, Matthew Santos, Matisyahu, Idan Raichel, andThe Local Natives, among other artists. With captivating performances at SXSW, a prime time spot at Jacob’s Ladder Festival in Israel, and headlining the Steven Gottleib Music Festival, Pauker is making big waves that will only get bigger.
