Reishi Maylen

Reishi Maylen is a psychedelic rocker, folk singer, guitarist, fiddler, multi-instrumentalist, folk song collector, & lore-weaver, signifying the revival of the archetypal Bard of Celtic antiquity in the modern day, the Age of Aquarius. His music exemplifies his vibrantly creative & improvisational spirit, purposeful songcraftsmanship, & vast multi-instrumentalism, which includes instruments such as the electric and acoustic guitars, fiddle, piano, bass, drums, & the pipe organ of a nearly 200-year-old cathedral in Peterborough, Ontario. Reishi is a singer of lore, the stories of ancient mythos, our histories, and the present moment. As the eternal battle rages forth between the forces of conquest & empire and the peoples of peace & freedom, Reishi Maylen speaks of those who are magnetizing into communities of the Earth, re-awakening to symbiotic ways of life & embarking upon the great quest of planetary healing. He also has many ongoing collaborations, including Many Minds, Hangul, Black Suit Devil, and Slipstream of Your Mind, and has performed and/or recorded with many artists and bands, including Talise and the Swampy Mountain Lads/Twilight Troubadours, Keith Whiteduck, Kansas-lee and Johnny Sauvage, Eric Mandala, Snowlion, Martian Broadcloak, Cubed1, The Vortexans, The Everflowing, Zuffalo, Erin Blackstock, Mary-Kate Edwards, Peace Sand Rest, and A Fellow Ship.
