HijaroOctober 2015Esthema has been working on some incredible new music over the past few months and we hope to introduce bits and pieces of it. The first piece is Hijaro. A composition penned by Mac Ritchey, we are working on creating that just-right arrangement. This video gives you an idea of some of the main themes. We hope you enjoy. More to come!!! Family, Friends, Travel, & MusicSummer 2015This summer (as is usual for this time of year) Esthema was real quiet. Individuals went back home to visit family and friends, toured playing music around the globe with incredible artists, and found time to take it easy. However, all the while we continued to work towards our shared Esthema goals, creating amazing music. We hope everyone has/had an incredible summer!!! ...gentle and hauntingJuly 2015One year after its release, Esthema's Long Goodbye is still receiving incredible reviews. "A production that blend jazz- and Balkan folk-inspired music with tones and scales of a more exotic Middle East origin, with a good balance between the gentle and haunting and the firm and dramatic." To read the entire review, please check out our reviews page or Progressor.net A sincere THANK YOU to Olav M. Bjornsen and Progressor.net for the continued support. Esthema on the AirwavesApril 2015For all our friends in the Boston/Somerville/Medford area, you can now hear Esthema on the FM dial, each Saturday between 4 and 5PM at WMFO 91.5FM. DJ Vincent Maganzini hosts the Acoustic Ceiling. Of course, you can also listen to WMFO 91.5FM 24/7 from anywhere in the world right here. The Possum Hall SessionsJanuary 2015At the tail end of January, Esthema came together to shoot what will ultimately be part of The Possum Hall Sessions: Esthema Live. We recorded live audio and video at Possum Hall Studios for a few of Esthema compositions, old and new. We are super excited about this because it captures Esthema, fully acoustic, live and unedited in an absolutely beautiful space. Looking forward to share more details once all the parts come together. Long Goodbye Top 10 of 2014January 2015At the end of 2014, the writers of DPRP (the Dutch Progressive Rock Page) listed their "Best Albums of 2014" and Esthema's Long Goodbye made it to the Top 10 (along with Opeth and Deep Purple) for writer Andrew Halley. You may recall that Mr. Halley reviewed Long Goodbye for DPRP back in October. We can't tell you what a feeling it is when guys that are reviewing the music of Deep Purple and Opeth are putting your music in the same Top 10 list. Crazy!!! Thank you Mr. Andrew Halley!
