Puentes

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to the beautiful people who have composed the songs of this album. Their powerful words and immensely beautiful melodies have touched our hearts and filled our lives with joy for many years. They have brought profound healing and love into our lives, and into the lives of so many others. We sing to all our relations and give our gratitude to the elders who have guided and taught us so much. Through them, we have learnt how to come together as a family in circle to pray and offer our thanks for being alive in this great mystery of creation. This album 'Amerikua' is our offering and expression of thanks for all that we have learned and received from the indigenous teachers of the Amerikas who have shared their wisdom so generously with us. ‘Puentes’ is a collective of friends who come together to pray, celebrate and play music around the altar of life. We hope that this album will nourish you, and that these recordings will serve as a bridge from these prayer-songs directly to your heart.
