Feel the compelling beat of Mother Earth – move your body and join the dance for the reverence of life! From the Artist The gifts of the Earth and sky, mountain and stream, ocean and forest are here for all people. Through the simple act of playing a drum we can all feel part of this beautiful creation, the Great Spirit. We inherit the Earth from our ancestors along with a sacred trust - that we shall be caretakers of the planet and live with respect for the sanctity of all life. We can not neglect the needs of our fragile planet nor the needs of all the children that are born to live upon it. Mother Earth sustains us, but only if we walk in balance and live in harmony with her natural ecology. We hope that our music helps in some way to strengthen your connection with the Earth and your Spirit within. In Peace, Steve Gordon and David Gordon About the Artist David and Steve Gordon have pioneered New Age/World music with their award-winning top charting albums for over twenty years. Their influential trademark sound, combining world instruments and sounds of nature has sold over one million units worldwide and has appeared on network TV and major motion picture scores such as the recent Fox Searchlight release, "Kissing Jessica Stein." Since founding Sequoia Records in 1982, the Gordon brothers have been breaking musical ground, consistently creating albums that top the charts, garner awards, and expand the boundaries of New Age and World music. "We like to think of our music as the music of Earth and Spirit, because we believe that one of the goals of being alive is to unite the two into one," explains Steve Gordon. Natives of Southern California, David and Steve Gordon both took an early interest in music. After studying classical music at Los Angeles Valley College and UCLA, the brothers both attended the Grove Music Academy where they studied modern harmony and jazz. They formed Sequoia Records in 1982 to release their first two albums Misty Forest Morning and Peaceful Evening. These albums combined music and nature so beautifully that they became known as definitive recordings of the newly emerging New Age music genre... Since these releases met with critical acclaim and healthy sales, over the next couple of years they recorded their next two music and nature titles, Radiant Sea and Still Waters. They next began experimenting with their music, developing a new style they called "Inner Environments", which they featured on two albums, Astral Journey and Celestial Suite. These recordings were some of the earliest examples of what is known today as Ambient/Space Music. In the early '90's the brothers began to collect Tribal drums and studied the Native American flute. They envisioned a contemporary world music, combining traditional Native instruments, with guitar, keyboards, and sounds of nature into a new universal world groove. Their 1994 release Sacred Earth Drums successfully blended
