Along with a full set of NB at 10pm, there will be Yoga, Meditation and a Prayer & Group Intention led by Dan Farella at 5pm, an Indian Tabla and acoustic performance by Dan and Vinnie Smith, along with other artists and musical performances throughout the night. Come on out for an amazing night of music, yoga, art, love and inspiration!!!

DWB was already in Haiti with 3 facilities, 2 hospitals and a clinic that were all demolished in the Earthquake. They are still doing amazing work in Haiti with the help of inflatable hospitals. By donating to them we are not only helping the immediate need of the aftermath of the earthquake but also in the rebuilding of their facilities that had previously existed.

Natural Breakdown Is Seeking Conscious Community.
Greetings,
We are Natural Breakdown, and we are actively seeking to link up with conscious people. We came upon our name from the awareness that the natural breakdown of everything is pure light and this is what we seek to channel through our music. Our music is charged with prayer and healing intent; our music and lyrics are all about sharing and spreading healing through the rock ritual that we perform on stage. We feel that the time is now and we are ready to step up and be of service to raising consciousness though sound, prayer, and ritual as well as many workshops and classes.
We are seeking to contribute with our music, as we infuse each performance with Invocation of sacred space, group prayers & visualizations, and guided meditations with music.
The Summer Solstice Approaches!
Happy Spring Natty Bees!
Seasons are changing once again, and we hope you all are experiencing Joy and Abundance as this part of the planet moves towards Full Bloom. We have had a wonderful Spring, filled with many great shows, as we continue to connect with as many of you as we can. And we’re excited to tell you about what coming ahead…
This weekend we are blessed to be celebrating the Summer Solstice in Pomeroy Ohio at the Wisteria Summer Solstice Festival! This eco-spiritual, community driven festival is going on all week and thru this weekend, and features musical and fire ceremonies, workshops and a family friendly environment. We are honored to be headlining the festivities on friday night. We can’t wait!
Next week we return to upstate NY for a three night run in Albany, Ithaca and Saranac Lake, playing with The Heavy Pets at the Red Square, The Buddhi at Castaways, and headlining the Waterhole. Come spend a summer weekend with us in the beautiful Adirondacks!
Work on the new album continues, and we’re having so much fun refining and combing over every sonic detail. We really look forward to releasing it and hope to have it out sometime later this summer. Thanks again to Mike Partridge for his ears and his patience!
As for the rest of summer, we have some ideas in the works to expand our community, and what it has to offer, and expand the experience of seeing Natural Breakdown live. We are excited for the coming months and are gearing up to make some announcements soon.
We thank you all again for your energy and hope you all have a Vibrant and Radiant start to your Summer.
Keep Buzzin!
Love Light Peace

Posted by gene in Events, NattyB Shows on February 10th, 2009
Greetings Bees! We’re excited to announce new dates for the spring. More dates will be added in the coming weeks, but we wanted to let you know what’s been made official.
First of all, we’d like to thank everyone who made last Saturday’s show at the Sherman Theater possible, we had so much fun. We are now pleased to announce another show in eastern PA, this time in beautiful Jim Thorpe. The entire town celebrates Earth Day all weekend long, with bands and a street fair in the center square. That Saturday night, we’ll be headlining at the Mauch Chunk Opera House, just up the street from all the festivities. It’s going to be another wonderful night in Jim Thorpe!
And then, we’re off to Colorado! We’re still figuring out the whens and wheres, but we’re happy to announce the first show of the run, the Aggie Theater in Fort Collins on 420. We’ll be playing other parts of Colorado as well before heading to New York for the BB King’s show, and we hope to announce those shows in the coming weeks.
We’re also excited to announce we’ll be heading to upstate New York for the Sterling Stage Folkfest in May! We’ll be playing a set on friday night and another sunday afternoon, so come camping with us for the weekend.
We can’t wait to get the new album out to you, we’re having a lot of fun recording in the Ranch and playing with Sound. Once again thanks to everyone in the Natty Bee community for your support and energy, and we look forward to buzzing with you all in the spring.
Peace Love Light

GREETINGS NATTY BEES AND ALL!!! We are having a WONDERFUL start to the New Year, and are excited to keep you up to date on what’s happening at the Ranch. We are having SO much fun recording the songs for the new album. This time around, we are experimenting with recording in all parts of the house, resulting in new sound textures to play with…it’s so much fun to be able to be this creative; we are truly blessed to be able to do it, and can’t WAIT to play it for you all! No release date as of yet, but we hope to be getting it to you sometime this spring, with a tour to support it. We’ll try to leak some video or audio snippets from the studio sometime soon. Speaking of Hope…
