ROOTED & RISING
In these uncertain and changing times, Rooted & Rising is an invitation to remember what holds us: to root deeply into the earth, the wisdom of the land and our ancestors, the sacred, and what matters most.
For the first time, Ayla Schafer will be touring with her band, joined by Danielle Riegel on harp and Erik Manouz on percussion. Together they will bring a new depth and richness to Ayla’s music, weaving an immersive journey of song, prayer and story, and a powerful and intimate space to listen deeply, to feel, to remember and reconnect with the living earth and the wisdom within us. More than a concert, the evening becomes a space of connection and remembrance, a journey that calls us back to our belonging.
Because when we are deeply rooted, we can rise: resilient and courageous, open-hearted, loving, wild and free. We can become the ones we have been waiting for, bringing into the world the love, courage and hope that are so deeply needed in these times.
Ayla Schafer is a British-born singer, songwriter, and visionary artist, celebrated as a “Voice of the Earth.” Her music moves between world folk, soul, and ritual, creating soundscapes that are both ancient and fiercely alive. Singing in Spanish, English, and Proto-Celtic, she offers a poetic repertoire that flows from devotion to earth consciousness and ancestral wisdom.
There is a wild stillness in her voice—a remembering of origins, a witnessing of the present, and a listening to unseen worlds. Each song is a living offering, threading memory, remembrance, and power through melody, rhythm, and silence.
Her performances are less about spectacle and more about invocation: a sacred space for reflection, deep listening, and reconnection to inner landscapes and the mysteries beyond ordinary perception. Listeners are carried on an enchanting musical journey through visible and unseen realms, toward tenderness, truth, and a profound sense of homecoming.
With a growing international presence, Ayla’s music invites sacred encounters and subtle transformation. Her work bridges the ancestral and contemporary, the self and the earth, and the seen and unseen, offering experiences that are ritualistic, intimate, and profoundly alive.
