SUNDAZE: Floating Sound Bath + Intentional Connection

 —  —

Venue Address released with ticket purchase [Glenwood, MD]

SUNDAZE is an invitation to stay in the feeling.

Experience intuitive and intentional soundscapes, guided breathwork, aromatherapy, and gentle integration create space for deep restoration before the experience naturally unfolds into something just as important, JOY.

2/21 at Resonate Baltimore, we launch The Resonance Series. A collective of folks who gather for connection, music, magic, nourishment, wellness and love. The first concert in this series is an intimate set by IAHIAL + The Fam intended to connect and share in a moment in time where sound is sacred and so are we.

Exhale and lean in to this beautiful blend of sound and story. We connect with each other through sound and memories. Memories of the past, of the future...even here and now we journey together and grow closer to each other and to self.

IAHIAL (she/they) is a sonic alchemist who transforms sound into immersive, soul-stirring experiences. A recording artist, composer, musician, and sound healer, IAHIAL blends environmental textures, rich harmonies, and electronic elements into evocative soundscapes that awaken the spirit and quiet the mind. With over a decade of experience, a degree in vocal performance, and an intuitive connection to sound’s healing power, they craft everything from ethereal film scores to meditative journeys and transformative live performances. Thriving at the intersection of intuition and technology, IAHIAL uses Ableton and Logic to turn emotion into multidimensional compositions. As they complete their fourth album, their work continues to evolve from scoring films, curating healing retreats, and offering sound experiences that foster deep transformation, rest, clarity, and connection. IAHIAL invites listeners into a world where sound is sacred, each frequency is a portal and each vibration a path home to self.

Joined by her band The Fam, you will experience what is sure to serve as a reminder of just how loved you are.
