Prepare to embark on a transcendent journey with the world-renowned musician, healer, and educator Poranguí, as he graces Vancouer B.C. Canada on Apr 17 at The South Hall. Accompanied by the visionary co-facilitator Ashley Klein, they extend an invitation to an embodied experience that seamlessly bridges the seen and unseen worlds.

Through the universal language of music, dance, and authentic expression, Poranguí’s live improvised performances and Ashley’s spoken guidance coalesce with captivating visual projections, promising an unparalleled odyssey that leaves us more whole, alive, and deeply connected.

The Chakaruna World Bridging Tour draws its inspiration from the ancient Quechua concept of "Chakaruna," meaning World Bridger. "Chaka" represents the Bridge, while "Runa" symbolizes the People, together reflecting the sacred duty of forging connections between the tangible and the intangible, the Earth and the Spirit, the individual and the collective. Poranguí and Ashley, through this tour, beckon us to step into our own roles as Chakarunas, intricately weaving our spirits into the vibrant tapestry of life and synchronizing with the pulsating heartbeat of the Earth.

We're honoured to showcase Youssoupha Sidibe, a Grammy-nominated virtuoso of the Kora from Senegal. Merging timeless West African harmonies with contemporary feel, Youssoupha embodies the tour's spirit of connecting worlds. His soulful preludes set a transcendent tone, inviting us into a night of rich cultural harmony and musical magic.

❃ About Poranguí: Reared among the three cultures of Brazil, Mexico and the U.S., Poranguí was steeped in various traditional forms of music, healing and ceremony since birth. Drawing from his cross-cultural background and ethnomusicology training at Duke University, Poranguí has over twenty-five years of international work experience as an artist, musician, healer, and educator, utilizing the healing properties of sound and movement to foster our individual and collective well being. As a live looping artist and one-man orchestra Poranguí weaves ancestral songs and indigenous rhythms from around the globe. Creating his performances from scratch using looping technology, Poranguí’s live grooves range from meditative to dance, moving the body, lifting the spirit, and transcending the divide between performer and audience. His World Soul concerts have taken him around the globe and led him to collaborate with many artists, including a current album series titled Kuya Sessions with Liquid Bloom. https://www.porangui.com/

About the artists:

SAM WOLFE [ https://soundcloud.com/samwolfemusic ] SAM WOLFE is the youngest, hottest-rising ticket in techno town. All eyes and ears are on the global launch of Atlanta's beloved Sam WOLFE, whose sound is a purifying blend of aggressive, big, and driving-dark energy.

His 2020 debut EP 'Triangulum' soaring to become the Beatport #1 overall-release. Stealing the attention of Spanish powerhouse-producers & founders of Reload Records, The YellowHea- ds and Sam Wolfe went straight to the studio. The debut collaboration "Hippodrome" climbed to Beatport's #4 spot on Techno Hype and #16 on Techno World Top-100; while receiving support from genre legends, specially UMEK. Then the WOLFE’s debut “Graveyard March” EP on Christian Smith's Tronic becoming his second Beatport #1 overall-release and receiving support from Bart Skils, Joseph Capriati, Richie Hawtin, Marco Carola, Steve Lawler, Monika Kruse, Oliver Huntemann, Tocadisco, and Claude VonStroke. He successfully manages to cross over to other genre's dance floors with his music playing around the world by Trance and Progressive House giants Markus Schulz, Armin van Buuren,Tiësto, Ben Gold, Genix, & Paul Thomas.

2021 continuing into another record-breaking year with the WOLFE's first chart-topping EP of the year, "7AM" on T-Minus Records. Succeeded by "The Gorge" on Sasha Carassi's Phobiq, the "Adrenaline Machine" EP on Oliver Huntemann's Senso Sounds, and "Reservoir" on Nora En Pure's Purified Records. The icing on the cake, his "Prison Break" EP featuring the mesmerizing vocals from Andrea Garcia; breaking records in streaming numbers and dance floor plays, prominently in Germany.

A smashing 2022 arrives with the Wolfe headlining 32 renowned stages across the globe; Seismic Dance Event, NOVA Toronto, Halcyon San Francisco, LiveNation's The Roxy Atlanta, and Miami's The Groove Cruise. Sharing stages with Deborah De Luca, Layton Giordani, Sama’ Abdulhadi, Boris Brejcha, and Charles D.

ROBOTIC ROMANCE [ https://soundcloud.com/shinichiwong ] Robotic Romance started in 2021 when Techno producers Jordan Laframboise and Shinichi Wong met at a Vancouver beach party. One thing led to another and the pair found themselves in the studio playing around with drum machines and hardware. This led to the pair starting to play B2B, with Shin adding his unique jazz background and live synths to Jordan's hypnotic and heavy play style, forming Robotic Romance. The pair are fast becoming a force to be reckoned with.

Tribute to B.B. King by Silent Partners | If you love the music of B.B. King, you'll love our fourth headliner at the Cool Blues Show, Silent Partners, in a Tribute to the King of the Blues, B.B. King. This band knows their B.B. King… Tony Coleman (drums and vocals) played with B.B. King for 30 years! Russell Jackson (bass and vocals) played with B.B. King for 7 years! We're stoked that they'll be joined by Yuji Ihara (guitar), Brad Shigatata (trombone), Vince Mai (trumpet), and our very own Dave Quinn (sax)!

Silent Partners Tony Coleman (drums and vocals) and Russell Jackson (bass and vocals) played with B.B. for many years, but did you know that they met each other in the U.S. Army in 1974? Along with their other army friend, Welton Everette, they formed the band Solid Funk and performed in their hometown of Kansas City alongside musicians like Charlie Parker and John Coltrane. They later joined Otis Clay's band in Chicago and caught the eye of B.B. King!

Silent Partners was formed with Mel Brown and Andrew “Jr. Boy” Jones years after leaving King, and although they took a hiatus in 1990, we can thank keyboardist Jim Pugh for encouraging the band to reunite in 2022! Their recently recorded album “Changing Times” marks a musical journey spanning over five decades.
