Dave Balen has been playing music all his life, primarily as a percussionist in all sorts of musical genres. He and Jefferson Glassie met in Varanasi, India and hit it off. Dave had been in Varanasi as a young person at the same time that the Beatles were visiting the ashram of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Rishikesh. Dave has a wealth of knowledge and experience about music and had a wonderful conversation with Jefferson about music, synchronicity, and the power of music.
