Norway's Jaga Jazzist Performs 'Starfire' - LPR Live

What this episode covers

Jaga Jazzist is an eight-piece Norwegian instrumental ensemble that draws inspiration from jazz, vintage funk, Krautrock and shoegaze. But it adds up to something different: a mesmerizing, exploratory and overwhelmingly energetic sound. Led by composer Lars Horntveth, the band first came together in 1994, and to date has released seven full-length albums. They are a favorite of the Mars Volta, who invited them to perform at the All Tomorrow's Parties Festival in 2005. We join the members backstage at Le Poisson Rouge for an exclusive interview and performance of their song "Starfire." --- About the podcast: LPR Live brings the excitement of the live-concert experience back to life with recordings from Greenwich Village’s pioneering Le Poisson Rouge in New York City.

Join us and have a listen! Wounded Warriors of the Cross Gary Pastoral and clergy mental health is a mostly ignored area, especially by those who live their lives as pastors in the clergy. The stigma of mental health within those who serve in the shadow of the cross is something that invokes the stigma of fear. Many of those in the clergy will choose to suffer in their despair rather than reaching out for help. Sometimes those suffering choose to wait until it's too late to get the real help that they need. At Wounded Warriors of the Cross our mission is to lift the stigma and the veil of silence that encompasses clergy mental health and assist those who suffer in silence. Wounded Warriors of the Cross is here to shed the light of Christ's love into those dark places.
