Music that is Rooted
in the Natural World
We are most ourselves when we are most intimate with the rivers and the mountains and woodlands, with the sun and the moon and the stars in the heavens; when we are most intimate with the air we breathe, the Earth that supports us, the soil that grows our food, with the meadows in bloom. The excitement and fulfillment of our lives is here. We belong here. Our home is here.
— Thomas Berry
How can creating music and listening in nature help with the ecological crisis?
"When I sing in nature, just like if I sing to a person or an animal, my connection grows stronger. And connection is all the more important with the challenges that we are facing. Because what is a greater motivation than love? Catastrophe and doom and gloom scenarios are only making people paralyzed, creating a numbness from truly taking in the beauty and grief that is around us. Intimacy means allowing someone or the earth to get close, to admit that you care. To admit that we are connected, and that what hurts you, hurts me. What hurts the earth, hurts us all. What restores you, restores me. What restores the earth, restores us all."
To become—water is not to surrender in despair. It is to dissolve into relation. To learn that fixing is not the only mode of response. That maybe, when the world is burning, the most radical thing is not to organize against it, but to disappear differently. To unlearn the house. To soak into the cracks. To become the unnamed thing that fire cannot touch. Bayo Akomolafe
Nature inspired vocal soundscapes infused by time spent in the fertile ecosystems of Louisiana. Wordless vocal music that is a lullaby to the land and its elements-the trees, birds, insects, and water. The mysterious beauty of the wetlands, a liquid land.
Each trio of songs includes a solo with the sounds of nature, a multi-layered vocal soundscape, and a collaboration with some of my favorite nature loving singers and instrumentalists.
