Description

Two uniquely talented musicians combine ancient and future, East and West, into a stirring mix of “progressive world music”. Stella=star; Roma=gypsies. Two uniquely talented musicians combine ancient and future, East and West, into a stirring mix of “progressive world music” with experimental flavors. Greg Herriges plays (and sings into) his guitar and Greek bouzouki with a unique approach honed by his studies of Asian and other international styles. Michael Bissonnette juggles an array of global percussion including cajon, frame drums, glockenspiel, and Aztec death whistle. The music ranges from ancient Mediterranean folk to Western pop, worldly surf-jazz, and high-energy all-of-the-above originals. You’ll hear unusual renditions of familiar tunes, and be treated to some of the most compelling new sounds. The Hastings Arts center is great place for our local community and a welcoming place for visitors just passing through. Our main goal is to continue to enrich the lives of all who enter our doors. We hope to transform more than just teach, and we hope to inspire more than just entertain.  The Hastings Arts Center is owned and operated by husband and wife, Travis and Sarah Lockwood. The "HAC," formerly Guardian Angels Catholic Church, features a performance and event venue, an art gallery, and a music school--Blessings Academy of Arts and Music.
