WEB OF ONE

 WEB of ONE is based in the San Francisco Bay Area of California where they are one of the freshest and most unique bands of the West Coast  Devotional, Bhakti / Kirtan  and Conscious music scene.

     Founders,  Eostar and Mathias come from different musical backgrounds:

Mathias was co-founder of the Boulder, CO based psychedelic jam band Double Dose touring nationally between 1987-2005.  Double Dose  released 3 CDs :  "Sense of Spirit ", " Live at the Idaho 2001 Rainbow Gathering " and " Live from the Launch Pad ".

She composed and played mostly spiritual, yogic and New Age world music and led regular kirtan and sound-healing events.  Eostars first album, Devotion, and her second album, Rose and Lotus, with Fearless Love was released in the spring of 2011.  

     In WEB of ONE, Mathias and Eostar blend their uniquely different musical notions into a living and breathing performance geared toward uplifting the consciousness of the listeners and inspiring them to dance.   This transcendental sound is intended to resonate in the deepest of ones heart, transporting one into a state of bliss through ecstatic singing, dance and movement.

     WEB of ONE performs Eostars original compositions while Mathiass keen sense of music and arrangement  tie it all together . 

Eostars  prolific songwriting talents reflect a depth of feeling and understanding of the human experience, while also incorporating the magic of ancient Sanskrit mantras from India.

Mathias melodic and trance-inducing improvisational guitar playing add an element of psychedelic depth and a syncopated groove to the cosmic, mystical sound of this music.

Influenced by psychedelic rock, jazz, world music and funk, Mathias virtuosity comes alive through hypnotizing guitar solos that take the listener on a journey into the depths of ones self.
