about

Joel Miller's new album Mandala is the most fully realized work of his career. Joel ventures into a fascinating song cycle-characterized by "short, earthy, folky melodic impulses in pentatonic major modes", called Mandala because they encourage healing much like the way visual Mandalas appear in dreams or the way children draw them. Miller expresses a wide range of emotions over 14 songs, from "my impish side" to a reflection of war's folly, from wistful memories of a Paris sojourn to fantasies about moon people.
