🌈 Meet DJ GHOST PIPE – Ghost Pipe is the spirit-channeled experience of holistic psychotherapist, Connor Wills. Ghost Pipe is meant to be more of a transmuted healing experience than just a DJ set. Ghost Pipe sets tend to lean toward organic tribal beats from West Africa and South America with dubby drops peppered in, but are always 100% unplanned and improvised moment by moment based on the energy of those in attendance. Folks in the audience can also expect to hear sampled vocal wisdom from indigenous leaders around the world, experts in trauma healing, and other reminders about self-love woven in over each track. Come experience music as a modality for healing!
