Blue Moon Rising – Outdoor Sound Bath – Malibu Mountains

about this event

Blue Moon Rising 🌕 Outdoor Malibu Mountain Sound Bath 

Sunday, May 31st | Arrival Window 6:45 – 7pm | Malibu Mountains🌕✨🌄🔥

Join us in the Malibu mountains for Blue Moon Rising — an outdoor sound bath experience beneath the stars during the rare Full Blue Moon in Sagittarius, a moon known for expansion, perspective shifts, freedom, and opening to new possibilities.

Led by Michelle Berc and the Sonic Being sound healing team, this immersive journey welcomes special guest musician Stewart Pico Cole — a masterful trumpet player, soundscape artist, and multi-instrumentalist whose work spans world tours, film scores, and recordings with artists including Beck, Sia, Mumford & Sons, Harry Styles, and many more. Stewart will weave dreamy trumpet soundscapes, ambient loops, and atmospheric synth textures into the evening’s sonic journey. Words of intention and spoken word poetry by Brooke Benson, a Los Angeles artist weaving heart, healing, and human connection through rhythmic storytelling.

We’ll begin with grounding meditation, breathwork, and vocal toning before dropping into a deeply restorative 432Hz sound experience featuring crystal bowls, Tibetan bowls, gongs, drums, didgeridoo, handpan, and other sacred instruments designed to nourish the nervous system and elevate your frequency.

Katie Carolan returns with her telescope for guided celestial viewing, plus tea service and a few surprises along the way. Sound under the stars… Malibu air… Blue Moon energy… and a community gathering designed to leave you lighter than you arrived. 🌌
