"No other group in jazz, past or present, sounds quite like @maryhalvorson.bsky.social's Amaryllis," WRTI's 'The Late Set' says of its guest and her band. "A sextet that places her guitar within a shifting matrix ... it’s a chamber ensemble with a dynamic core, forever in a state of flux."

People might shut their ears to what I'm saying, but if it's music it will go down into their subconscious and stay there.

Music can be used as a weapon, as energy. The right note or chord can transport you into space using music and energy flow.

"While the man born Herman Blount in Alabama (though he would later cite Saturn as his true home) left his terrestrial form back in 1993, the influence of Sun Ra on musicians both hugely popular and deep underground is so vast that his gravitational pull goes well beyond the confines of jazz music."

I have the treasure of nothing
All of it is mine.
He who would build a magic world
Must seek my exchange bar
In order to partake of my endless
Treasure from my endless realm of nothing..

Outer space is a pleasant place
A place where you can be free
There's no limit to the things you can do
Space is the place.
