It's a common refrain that humanity harbors a dark undercurrent--that whatever paradises we can imagine will always be sabotaged by innate selfishness and violence. During a recent period of self-inquiry, Alister James Wright (Vlossom, Cloud Control) discovered a convincing rebuttal to that pervasive argument. He came across Riane Esler's 1987 book 'The Chalice and The Blade', which argues that many ancient civilizations did in fact live equitably, with no war, hierarchy, or gender-based oppression. Many of these cultures worshipped a nurturing goddess figure rather than a disciplinarian, paternalistic god, and many produced prolific artists and poets. He had recently begun collaborating on a new project with longtime friend Sam Lockwood (The Jezabels) and together they decided to begin exploring these themes in their work. They named the group Goddess911: a musical outlet intended to explore what people can become when they dissolve the myths that keep them locked in place.
