1. 0:00 Jaimeo R. Brown percussionist, drummer composition Baby Miesh
2. 5:17 Live Improvisational performance from my former Marin County-based musical collective Spirit Moves*. Not a band, a bond!
3. 14:40 After playing in the water up to our knees, we push away from the dock, leave the bay to traverse the Rainbow Ocean.
Jaimeo’s piece entitled Baby Miesh is composed and performed by Jaimeo Brown, drums with Kelvin Sholar Electric Piano, and bassist Ameen Saleem. The better the playback system, the better the experience.
