Open Your Heart!

About Me


Cornflower is a solo-vocalist whose destiny is to open his voice to musically inspire, awaken and bring peace to humanity. His solo-vocal music emerges from the moment, blending various genres such as jazz, hip-hop, roots reggae, folk, electronica, experimental and world-beat with the sounds of nature. Cornflower uses vocal techniques such as 'scat' and 'vocal-percussion' (aka Beat-boxing) and an intuitive sense of timing to decipher which themes to pressure cook.
Cornflower has collaborated with many artists, musicians & luminaries including: Bobby McFerrin , James Twyman , Dubconscious , Elemental Harmonics , Phillip Daniel , +Elijah- & the Band of Light , Scott Huckabay , Nikita Gearing and Quetzatl .
He was invited to be a guest leader at the annual 12-hour Circlesinging event called “Singing for your Life 2005” with members of SoVoSo .
Cornflower has studied with ten-time Grammy Winner, Bobby McFerrin. He has also worked alongside visionary artists Jose Arguelles and Lloydine Bolon Ik in bringing the awareness of Natural Time to the world.
Parallel to his musical sharings, Cornflower facilitates Circlesinging events & workshops, as well as inspiring & empowering workshops & retreats alongside his partner Nikita, through the name T.O.N.E (Tribe of New Earth)
Cornflower’s offerings of musical prayer-formance and group facilitation are adventures into the present moment. Invoking an authentic experience, his sharings are inspired by his own personal journey of awakening to his voice and being peace within a world waking up to a new time.
