... that a ten day silent retreat led Deradoorian to invite Samer Ghadry and Dave Harrington as collaborators on her album, Find the Sun? Source: "Deradoorian was at a Vipassana retreat last summer — in complete silence for 10 days — when she was gripped by several realizations about her then-in-process record. One was that its aesthetic should be raw and spontaneous, akin to real life. Another was that she should ask her friend Samer Ghadry, a sound healer and jazz drummer, to play on it. Ghadry’s longtime collaborator Dave Harrington, whom he met while studying at Brown, joined them."

Comment: I feel like this bit of information makes for a good hook, but I'm unsure how to word it better. So if anyone has any suggestions, feel free to leave an ALT.

Length, history and reference verified. Good to go. Daniel Case (talk) 20:07, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Bait30: we don't put names on the main page that aren't linked to their own page. You could either write a stub for Samer Ghadry, or use a descriptive term for him. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 15:29, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok that makes sense. I was even thinking that when I wrote the hook. I don’t think Ghadry is notable so I’ll just remove him from the hook.
