My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 2/3/2008
Band Website: kannal.org freestylemovement.com
Band Members: Representing INTI, G.S.P. & the Freestyle Movement ,
Kan'Nal , Lunar Fire & Future Simple Project
Influences: I dance for all the people- in constant 'urban' ceremony -to give a visual & representational voice for indigenous women. A little transitional lumbar vertebrae of mine created a serious passion & addiction to vinyl, cassettes, and more of everything to hear and experience...inspired as a vessel during all live music, influenced by too many to list, although John Frusciante is always my internal medicina
Sounds Like: ....the reason to showcase all the amazing musical projects I am honored to create with!, while connecting the art of dance to the live show experience. Embodying tangible energy transfer as a vessel, producing elevation through the auditory experience & healing through sound frequency. Aesthetically giving a voice to indigenous women, wearing the stories & weavings of many different sovereign cultures together, hopefully promoting awareness of their growing instability & also as a symbol of unification.
Type of Label: None
