                  OJOLO - Movement Music for Conscious Living

     The culturally diverse musical trio OJOLO is creating a unique style of ‘New World Music’ that reflects the emerging spirit of  ‘many cultures, one planet’, and of consciously creating a healthy lifestyle, a healthy planet, and a healthy future.

     The music of OJOLO has been described as a ‘Funky, World, Tribal’ style that blends textures and energies from musical styles around the world (African, Middle Eastern, Beduin, etc), and a Universal connection with Source.

     Of course movement and dance are integral parts of the conscious lifestyle community, and the music of OJOLO delivers. “It’s actually more about ‘being danced’”, explains DjonDjon, singer and multi-instrumentalist of OJOLO “Why spend all that energy when you can give yourself up to spirit, let yourself be moved, and ultimately recharge the body AND spirit by being danced?”

Formed in 2007, originally as 'To Life!',  OJOLO members are:

JonJon  a Greek Canadian on lead vocals, guitars,  ‘stringed things’, and loops. He is also a platinum-selling producer by day

Osher Levi  from Israel, on didjeridoos, percussion, and vocals. Osher is a ceremonial leader and sound healer as well, and brings with her a shamanic and healing intention.

 LO Rojon  a Korean-African American on DjunDjun concert drums and vocals. LO brings a percussive style influenced by African, Latin American, and Asian cultures, as well as Soul, Funk, Rock, and Roots music.

     The members of OJOLO have traveled extensively throughout the world (including Osher and DjonDjon having spent time living and playing music with the Beduins of North Africa). OJOLO currently reside in the Northern California, forging yet another musical revolution from the West.  They have performed extensively , headlining festivals, in clubs, parties, conferences, and retreats...

     OJOLO have completed 2 full length CDs, the first named one of the top 10 World Music Releases of 2007 (Backroads Music), and have been featured on KPFA’s “Music of the World”, KMUD’s “Tribal Voices”, Tangents World Radio, and various radio stations, both internet and traditional.

     OJOLO’s music celebrates life, and the transformation of our Age, without being ‘New Age-ee’.  They have taken their shared love of tribal cultures and rhythms, and have created some of the freshest and most exciting grooves in New World Music.

OJOLO  begins where other trancey world music groups   leave off. Besides the musicianship honed from deepening the grooves over years of experience, the immeasurable passion of this trio takes the listener on a magic carpet of cross-cultural discovery of what lies inside the mystery”
