The intention for this album of preliminary recordings:

"To be a "musical goodness tool" that anyone can use to reconnect with the power and wisdom of the heart...promoting clarity, inspiration, and empowerment..."

SOON TO COME (towards the end of March, 2012) A "crowd funding" online fundraiser to financially support:

A. The creation of THE NAMASTE ALBUM (the fully
orchestrated/harmony vocalized/mastered version)
- to be available for digitial download and on CD

B. The "Joe Fred and Friends NAMASTE tour 2012
- to stretch both within and beyond "the frozen tundra"

C. The creation of the "Joe Fred and Friends NAMASTE
live concert experience 2012" DVD
- to be recorded during a "2012 NAMASTE
Tour" :)

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO READ MORE WORDS NOW...

here is a quote that I enjoy:

"Look to this day
for it is life...
the very life of life...

In its brief course lie all
the realities and truths of existence
the joy of growth...the splendor of action
the glory of power....

For yesterday
is but a memory...
and tomorrow... only a vision...

But today... well lived... makes every yesterday
a "memory of happiness..."
and every tomorrow... a "vision of hope..."

Look well, therefore... to this day....
