The Rec Room Radio Hour Podcast: Locally Sourced Music From Pennsylvania!

Episode 46: Mara Katria

On this episode of The Rec Room Radio Hour, we experience an engaging and enlightening conversation with Mara Katria.  Mara welds a number of tools to communicate her vision and her passions; musician, film director, videogame world-builder, writer, and photographer.  She uses these various media (alone or in combinations) to immerse her audiences in the depths of history and the perpetuity of genuine emotion.  To that end, Mara has written and recorded a 10-song LP with the seminal post punk band Modern English [http://www.modernenglish.me/]. The album, Modern M , promises to guide listeners on a sonic adventure that spans the ribbon of time. Katria aims to use song as a mirror: echoing our mythic past; reflecting the musical renaissance of the 1980s; and projecting epochs yet to come. Songs (all songs written by Mara Katria from her album "Modern M" [https://marakatria.com]): * "People Turn To Gold" * "Snow" * "Skipping Stones" * "What Archetypes Say" Mara's  website [https://marakatria.com] Modern English's website [https://modernenglish.me]...
