Caleb Stine: Moon

Recently I was invited to the most amazing album listening party.  The heart and soul of Baltimore's music scene, Caleb Stine, held a unique event at Stages Music Arts.  Stine created a coloring book as part of the packaging for his new album.  Each song is represented by drawings from different artists in the coloring book and allows you to experience music in way you may have not before.  Upon entering, everyone was given a copy of the coloring book along with coloring pencils and then we all adjourned to the studio to listen to the album and color as we listen.  It was a truly moving experience.  It begged to ask the question.  When is the last time you sat and just listened to music and did nothing but that?  Not listening to it as background music in the house, or while you are driving, or as you workout, but where listening is the main focus.  The coloring book provided an outlet to truly focus on the music and dive deep into the album, to crawl around in each song, to dig through the lyrics and find every meaning and nuance.  And Stine’s music has lots of corners in which to explore. 




You can check out my review of the new album from Honest Tune Magazine at the link below where you can listen to a few tracks from the album.  You can also check out a live version of "Hollow Imitation" from Moon.
