SPOKEN WORD & HANDPAN FOR THE INNER EAR
Ethereal Rising is a newly-hatched rhythmic poetry project led by Gina Tang. With an emphasis on “prayer-formance,” Ethereal Rising transcends traditional genres by tapping into vulnerable territory—merging expressive writing with meditative beats and a deep intention to push creative edges. Gina brings a passion for personal reflection and discovery, earth stewardship, social justice, and generational healing into her lyrics, while the soothing tones of the handpan drum re-calibrate mind and body. |

Gina's musical journey began with childhood piano lessons, and continued into the UCSD Gospel Choir, where she sang with the ensemble and choreographed a dance element. She is also a former vocalist/percussionist for the band Soul Ablaze, and a former vocalist/percussionist for the band Bateke Beat, led by Fela Kuti's prior saxophone player Fidel Bateke. Amidst all the singing and dancing, Gina spent most of her time writing. She launched her first experimental jazz and spoken word project with Tom Camillo in 2012, as The Tom & Gina Trio. Ethereal Rising is Gina's first "solo" project, however, she plans to collaborate widely with other instrumentalists, vocalists, and multi-disciplinary artists.
