rising appalachia: SWOON

Eventually

Ayla Nereo’s voice hits straight to the heart. With an array of loop-pedals by her side, she layers vocal melodies into majestic, sweeping harmonies and weaves magical threads of guitar, kalimba, piano, and percussion into each live performance. Her lucid storytelling and lyrical imagery are water for the thirsty soul; sounds embodying the many folds of our own selves. Ayla’s music is both timeless and modern; circle songs and roots music meet folktronica. Crafting an immersive soundscape we can rest in, her gentle intention guides us into a more open and receptive state. Each performance is a journey: an inspired, wondrous experience that holds you by the heart and doesn’t let go.

Ayla Nereo - Wasted Hours(Original)

Who Decides

This album is called ALIVE. Its a play on words in some way. Its a collection of live recordings, which have a very different sentiment than a studio recording. Its lively, it is in fact ALIVE. 
 
BUT also, secondarily, and perhaps more importantly it is a collection of songs that are telling of the time. A time where the veil has been lifted and we want people to WAKE UP, to be WOKE, to be ALIVE. To feel and be present and work to make this crazy world more just and humane. We hope that our music can in fact be a tool in consciousness, and encourage people to be more aware, more engaged, and more awake.

To say that No Static is just a record label would be a misrepresentation, it is a family. Rather, No Static is a collective, a group of passionate people sharing the same mindset. Our mindset: get rid of the static in your headphones. In the age of flashy beats and recycled verses, No Static artists are a breath of fresh air. Jake Heinitz created No Static in 2010 as a way to bring quality music into one central location and here it is. No Static, Just Music. Run things.
