THE STORY BEHIND THE MUSIC
Who are we? What are our true origins?

Return of the Star Elders is a concept album that unfolds an intriguing story. Its inspiration came from a combination of our ancient, earthly past and from other realms. For more than a decade Lia has travelled to sacred sites across the globe and explored the ancient indigenous cultures who created them. Many of these indigenous nations speak of a time long ago, when their ancestors descended from the stars; Skygods who walked amongst humankind; Divine beings with advanced technologies and untold knowledge.

Their arrival was recorded in rock art and on temple walls. Our ancestors erected elaborate temples and stone circles to honour their starry, god-like teachers; sacred structures aligned precisely with the Pleiades, Sirius and Orion, to mark the celestial Solstice and Equinox. As Above…So Below.

Many ancient prophecies speak of a time when our Starry Ancestors will return, to awaken humanity from their deep slumber. Could the seismic change in our world today herald that return? Is it possible we stand on the brink of a New Golden Age?

 

Predestined Timing
Some months after I began recording ‘Return of the Star Elders’, I became aware of an ancient Aboriginal Prophecy. The similarity between the Prophecy and the story I had been guided to unfold through the music, was extraordinary.

The Prophecy speaks of a Pleiadean spaceship that came to Earth a long time ago, leaving behind a special device to be activated at a predestined time. The Aboriginal Elders refer to this device as a “Magic Box”, and say it is beyond the comprehension of mere mortals.

This long-awaited activation was said to occur at Uluru at 9.02pm, Northern Territory time, on December 21st Solstice, at the exact moment of the rare, Great Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn.

It seemed as if  Return of the Star Elders had been orchestrated by the Star Elders. As the music and accompanying Light Language messages were gifted through me, I was ‘told’ that they contained Codes of Light to prepare us for the massive  influx of new Cosmic frequencies that would flood the Planet on December 21st Solstice and beyond, and would support us in our subsequent adjustment to those frequencies.

The Listeners Experience

“I have traversed ancient landscapes with the Elders of each domain. Tears and deep, heartfelt healing…Love, Love and more Love. Thank you for sharing this magnificent journey with me.”
Stephanie Phelps  – USA

“I was activated immediately and taken on deep journeys with each track. I cried with an open heart bursting with love. I’ve risen up to fly with my white dragon, and ridden on the back of a magnificent eagle. I’ve seen a temple above my crown, and a ‘being’ in feathers of all colours. Symbols upon symbols flashing in my third eye. This is your biggest masterpiece Lia, your most significant channelling for mankind to so far. Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou..”
Miranda Short – Australia

“Another stunning musical creation! Each track transports you on a new adventure to different cultures around the world. A global story of the old and the new. The rebirthing of the Earth shared through your unique voice, and the atmospheric depth of the instrumental accompaniment. A fabulously, rich, cinematic experience!”
PM – Ireland

“Return of the Star Elders’ is beautiful – so calming and so visual. By Track 6, I was teleported into a deep sleep. I had the best night’s sleep in months. Such an amazing variety of vocals and soundscapes. Each track would be fabulous with its own mini film. I can’t wait to listen again!”
CS  – UK

 

Would you Like to Support Lia’s Music?

‘Return of the Star Elders’ was a project of service, six months in the making. My time, energy and creative process, I gladly gift to the Star Elders. Recouping the extensive studio & production costs through sales of the album however, is impossible.

CDs sales are down by 80-90%. Digital downloads almost as much. People now largely enjoy their music for free through streaming services, with almost zero royalties going to the artist. Continuing to self-fund the production of studio-recorded music of this quality has become an ever-increasing challenge.

 

Your Purchase of the album here, or a donation to my GoFundMe page
would therefore be deeply appreciated!
