Last Friday we gathered for Voices of Iran • an evening woven from Iranian and Kurdish music, poetry, remembrance, community, and the spirit of Woman • Life • Freedom.

To everyone who came, sat with strangers, shared tea, listened deeply, danced freely, donated generously, and helped shape the evening into what it became thank you 🤍

There is something quietly powerful about choosing to gather in a world that often asks us to look away from one another. For a few hours, people from different backgrounds shared the same room, the same stories, the same music, and the same longing to feel a little more human together.

Endless gratitude to for carrying old songs across oceans and forgotten roads and reminding us that music can hold memory longer than borders ever could. To for gently guiding the room from listening into movement through Silk Road frequencies. To for weaving beauty and helping hold the space. To and for opening their doors and trusting this vision. And to for helping bring the sound to life.

A portion of the evening’s proceeds will be donated to Battered Women’s Support Services (BWSS) in support of women and survivors of violence, in honour of the spirit that inspired this gathering.

What began with hot sand, tea, poetry, and conversation slowly unfolded into music, movement, laughter, remembrance, and connection. For a little while, strangers became neighbours, and the room remembered what it was built for.

The caravan keeps moving. 🧿

Next stop: Otherworld.

More stories from the road soon. ✨🤍

The caravan keeps moving 🐫

Different cities.
Different rooms.
Different faces around the fire.

Yet every so often, a song arrives and reminds us why we gather in the first place!

Deep gratitude to for sharing such a beautiful offering of traditional Iranian music, Rumi poetry and helping transform a room at into a temporary home.

Deep gratitude to High Vibes Victoria and for opening their doors and helping us to create a space for this gathering to unfold.

Places willing to hold evenings like these are precious. They remind us that culture is not something distant or preserved behind glass, but something alive, carried through songs, stories, conversations, and the simple act of gathering together.

For a little while, the room forgot where it was.
Strangers became neighbours.
The night remembered itself.

More stories from the road still to come.

last weekend our caravan travelled all the way into Slocan Valley for .unionmusicfest 🌲🧿

two days on the road through mountains, rain, ferry rides & strange little timelines just to bring our offerings deeper into the interiors for the first time.

huge love to the .unionmusicfest & .productions family, Max, Taylor & everybody who welcomed us like family returning home after being gone too long.

and honestly watching the .3yrie & .o.f.t.t.h.o.r.n.s naturally weave into all this felt kinda unreal. everybody simply brought what they carry, and somehow it all clicked into place like this caravan’s been travelling side by side for years already.

travelling together, sharing the road, building lounges, pouring Turkish coffee, fusion drinks, hanging lanterns, carrying sound systems & co-creating little worlds for different communities has been sooo special 😭

special love to .i.t.a__ too, whose handmade propane-tank lanterns lit up the lounge all weekend like tiny fire spirits hanging in the trees ✨

more and more it feels like we were meant to gather & travel like this:
near water,
under trees,
around music, conversations, lantern light & open skies…
not inside glowing boxes pretending this is enough.

anywaysss
the caravan keeps moving 🌙

made with love in collaboration with Soft Thorns ✨

the new elixirs moving through our lounge are built from a blend of comforting old-world ingredients, grounding herbs & vibrant botanicals • inspired by late-night conversations, ancient kitchens, forest gatherings & wandering ritual culture.

this collaboration brings together Faralya’s wandering ritual culture with Soft Thorns’ eye for seeing intricacy in minimalism and her experimental relationship to the little beauties of Mother Earths. Incorporating the earth’s gifts in as many art forms as possible.

expect things like:
🌸 hibiscus for cooling the body & opening the heart
☕ cardamom for warmth, clarity & sensory awakening
🫖 sahlep • a beloved traditional Anatolian ingredient known for its velvety texture, deep comfort & grounding warmth
🌿 ashwagandha for balance, nervous system support & resilience
🧉maté cocido

alongside rotating ingredients, floral infusions & strange little experiments from the Faralya kitchen.

ancient ingredients meeting modern gatherings.
ritual beside rave.
softness beside basslines.

sip slowly. move freely. feel everything 🧿

Sharing this with a full heart.

Grateful for friends who choose to gather people through art when the world feels heavy, and who remind us that care, courage, and creativity are not small acts • they’re necessary ones.

This night is about showing up for one another, amplifying voices, and remembering our shared humanity through music, stories, laughter, and presence.

So much love and respect to Vensan, Sora, Waterfront Country Cafe and every artist offering their voice, body, and craft to hold this space.

If you feel the call, come sit in the room.
Being there matters!
Your voice matters!
