Sanctuary
Sanctuary, eclectic percussionist Richie Barshay's second album as a leader, is a collection of drum-centric originals featuring special guest Chick Corea. Drawing influences from Brasil, Mali, India, and explorations with found-recycled percussion, the songs capture the role of drumming as a personal and communal sanctuary. Recorded inside a historic synagogue in Flatbush, Brooklyn.

Homework
“Homework introduces a major rhythm voice on the rise.”
