"A unique flamenco hybrid. It’s a hypnotic marriage of fluid, dreamy soundscapes and frenzied soloing.”
Victoria Times Colonist

   
Sunyata is...

Jim Gawne
Plays what looks like a guitar, but only has 5 strings and is tuned like a mandolin. Let’s call it a mandoquela or cinco or just la guitarra bastarda, built by Luthier, Randy Catterall. Also added some Fretless Bass, Mandola, Mandolele, Cuatro, Balalaika and from the recycle bin, the Plasti-Bass.

Ken Hall 
Guitar, Oud (or Ud), Flute, Nay (And yes the Nay’s have It)

Laurent Boucher
Drums, Percussion and lots of it. But he needs more.

And very special guest, Blaine Dunaway, on Violin
