I am not an entertainer, though people appreciate my musical performances. I don't have fancy equipment, but I do with what I have. It's great to make some money, and I do when I perform, yet, when I can touch someone's heart with the music I play, that is worth more than all the money in the world. Nature is my muse, even when Earth cries (and She is crying now). I love and respect All Living Beings. They are MitaÄ·uye pi - My Relatives. I am a daughter of Earth and Sky. Throughout the years I have cried many tears, laughed many laughs; have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. I have been through great joy... and great sorrow. It's what makes me who I am. It is what makes my music what it is... a vessel of love, hope, and, I hope, of healing.
