When Gina Met Clemo
It was 2022. Some friends had gathered in the name of music and food. Among them were Christian "Clemo" Clemesha with his guitar, and Gina Tang with her handpan. There were others in the room, too: on vocals, djembe, calabash. The jam session started.
Gina remembers moments, rising up from sparse places in the soundscape, that sent waves of new breath throughout her body. Catch, savor, release. Such is the way of improvisation. "That was fun, let's do it again sometime!" and everyone goes home.
Fortunately, Gina and Christian managed to exchange contact information with the intention of getting together for more jams. Three mind-blowing musical encounters later, they knew: they needed to do this. Not just more often, but as often as possible.
The rest is history in the making.
