Sound Bath Sessions 017: Nancy Trueman

Long-time Hong Kong resident Nancy Trueman left a few years ago, dividing her time between London and Whistler. She regularly performs for charitable causes, art exhibitions, and sound bath sessions in beautiful locations.

This is the first session we recorded, and right away, I knew that this was going to be something special. I felt this was a very energetic session with emotions of confidence and strength lingering after it was all over. She starts off with fast tempos and small phrases to break the shell expectations before slowing down with weighty swells and washes, pressing you and making it hard to breathe.

Her style is so powerful with amazing expressive rhythms and sounds slightly pausing to let you have the breath of recovery before sending you under again. Some phrases gave me goosebumps and shivers down my spine. She finishes with the gentle sound of leaves and shaker, a soft respite to the heavy metal of the session.
