About Me


Powered by iSOUND.COM
Orionstar is the name of a musical project and exists currently as a mlog here on myspace. There are currently no studio produced works for Orionstar- all music is recorded with a Macbook and Garageband by founder and composer Frank Cable. The project name "Orionstar" is made in tribute to Frank's son, Orion.
Jason Moses plays on many of the live recordings of Orionstar (strings, piano, voice) and has played a hugely creative role in developing counter melodies and harmonies.
Orionstar existed as a larger group for a performance in May 2008 at PACE Easthampton, MA. Hopefully the music will find it's way to a larger ensemble someday soon.
There are no immediate plans to record professionally due to lack of funds. As such, the music lives here for an instant, soon to be pushed ahead by the next wind like a Mandala.
"If you like the music please tell your friends- I hope you can find some of yourself in these words.
Namaste,
Frank"
