James Maguire and Melissa Howlett-Maguire, AKA Laliya, are a musical duo based in Perth Australia, regularly touring Asia, Europe and Canada. Formerly engaged as street musicians world-wide, they now play international festivals and music venues, where they are featured as major artists. Currently on the schedule is a music festival in Tunisia. Melissa is a percussionist and James plays the digeridoo and other stringed instruments, in addition to the Appalacian dulcimer.
James commissioned his Baby Grand equipped with RMC electronics because he wanted a cutting edge instrument for the recording studio as well as concert venues. And he wanted the MIDI interface to a standard, easily portable foot synthesizer, for music with an international pallette. He plays his synth dulcimer, incredible as it may seem, in real-time, with no over-dubbing! Check out the smooth flow of melody, beat and special effects.
Melissa and James have very attractive website and MySpace sites, featuring cuts from their CDs, performance videos, discography, guestbook, etc. See them at:
