Earthdance Asheville is collaborating with producers around the world to produce a one main, live-streamed festival to be aired on Earthdance.tv. This is centered on our traditional synchronized meditation, happening at 7:00 PM (ET) on September 19th.
Cradled in the bosom of the Smokey and Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville is a place of palpable spontaneity. A freshly-roasted and family-friendly place to be, to invite some friends for a cup of tea. In this enchanted hotbed for the Arts; dancing, farming, music, and beer are just some of the ways we keep it weird around here.
For Vision 2020: Co-Manifestival we are excited to bring you a weekend’s worth of talented presenters, hailing from Berkeley to the Bays of Puerto Rico!
…and for the first time EVER, Earthdance Asheville is also working with the Global XR Community to provide you with an Xtended Reality experience as we manifest our Multiverse.

Eduardo de Rosamaria is a Raleigh, NC based Canadian guitarist. His virtuosity extends throughout the Classical Spanish, Flamenco, and Flamenco Fusion genres. He has performed throughout North America as a soloist, a member of the North Carolina Guitar Quartet and the Paco Band. His numerous return engagements with the North Carolina Symphony, Raleigh Symphony, North Carolina Theater, North Carolina Bach Festival and concert series at universities and colleges in the southeast, have established him as one of the region’s most sought after performers. His versatility is reflected in his discography: Kypoyka – Ukrainian Children’s Songs and Stories, Winter Branches – North Carolina Guitar Quartet (Liscio Recordings) (1997), Ino Live – Ed Stephenson and the Paco Band (Liscio Recordings) (2011), Esencia – Ed Stephenson and the Paco Band (Alanna Records) (2012), A Paco Band Christmas – Ed Stephenson (2013), & Rosamaria – Ed Stephenson and the Paco Band (Alanna Records) (2015). The Classical Voice of North Carolina praised his Esencia album saying, “It has all the characteristics and virtuosity of traditional flamenco guitar but falls outside – or perhaps expands upon – the limited traditional flamenco harmonies and structure. You find influences such as bossa nova or Latin, rock, jazz, swing and salsa, and others.” His most recent CD Rosamaria was recently completed with the Paco Band and was released in April 2015 under the Alanna Records label.
