A FULL LENGTH MUSICIAN! At fifty - two minutes in duration and 13 tracks long, Ekayani and the Healing Band's new CD lives up to it's name, FULL LENGTH. But the album is also a confident statement of full on artistic maturity and personal identity. At an imposing six feet one inch tall, Ekayani is certainly a full length woman, willing and able to articulate a grown woman's triumphs, fears, and desires. And her record, the result of ten years of apprenticeship and rigourous effort on two continents (France & USA) , shows the full value of her encounter with themes and styles that make up it's groundbreaking music. Her artistry is full length as well! Conceived in France, where she met innovative musical partner Paul Mahoux, and brought to term in the United States, where Ekayani continues to push her musical boundaries in New York and Miami, FULL LENGTH is a major statement of artistic coming of age by a musician unafraid to go all- in by blending genres, styles, ideas, and emotions. The songs of FULL LENGTH express a wholly realized woman's strengths and doubts, her intellect and herspirituality, her reflections on love and the absence of love, her hopes for her own happiness and the well being of all the people who hear her. They range in format from alternative/fusion to jazz spoken word, articulated through either totally original speaking, singing, or chanting styles-read cosmopolitan in the best sense aka URBAN.
The studio Collection EP was a downtown NYC hit, cracking the Top 40 at The Liquid Sound Lounge, and her commanding prescence ( she retains the style and beauty of her time as a Parisian model) has made the bands live shows memorable events. Ekayani is currently supporting the record from bases in New York and Miami, doing radio dates and showcase appearances at Howl! Festival, The Knitting Factory, Miami's JAZID and the legendary Hit Factory in New York. The healing continues!
