The Arwen Lewis Show

THE ARWEN LEWIS SHOW - There was a planet, very, very, very, very far away, from what Earthling beings refer to as “Earth.” It was a ruthless fire-breathing planet, that the beings of Earth referred to as “Mars.” It reflected incredible beams of red and orange light, but never had an Earthling heard, an audio recording of what the sounds of Mars, were. On planet Earth, there was a United States government agency called NASA… The National Aeronautics and Space Administration was responsible for science and technology related to air and space. NASA was determined to retrieve the sounds of planet Mars, and bring them to their unusual planet. Coincidently, also residing on planet Earth, was a being, named Jason Achilles, who was also intrigued by this idea. Following an early 2022 US tour as keyboardist for Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains, JASON ACHILLES now divides his time as a touring multi-instrumentalist/music producer, orchestral composer, and “side gig” as an aerospace entrepreneur. Currently, he is developing a live touring planetarium show that will inspire the public through an unlikely personal journey from music to Space. In 2017 Jason leveraged his audio expertise into technical consulting, joining forces with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, ultimately helping bring to Earth, on a day unbeknownst to planet Mars, the first sounds of the planet as recorded by the Mars 2020 Perseverance rover. Concurrently he served as Principal Investigator for a 2020 NASA Flight Opportunities grant to successfully flight test his Lunar ExoCam remote rocket viewing camera tech developed with Honeybee Robotics. When not on the road performing live with his experimental ‘cosmic space-rock duo, he can be frequently spotted with his nerd friends attempting to capture high-fidelity audio from the numerous rocket launches at Vandenberg Space Force Base in Southern California (and not have their microphones incinerated).
