La Ceiba! A sneak peak at the song I am writing. Almost very song I write has a story to tell. This song is about the first time I saw a Ceiba tree in Guatemala. I was a small child and it's beauty forever left an impression on me. My ancestors called it the tree of the universe, the first tree or Yax Che. I didn't know then but it was considered a sacred tree. The tree that connected all parts of the universe. We humans or our world as we know it, is represented by its trunk, its roots the underworld, and its canopy the 13 branches of the heavens according to the Mayans. . . . #guatemala #roots #writingmusic #stories #latinfusion #connectingtoyourroots #kelownamusic #universe #love #hopingtowritemoresongs #10songchallenge #firstsong #okanaganmusic

We're so excited and honoured to be asked to play at this event! (It was one of my wishes a year ago when we first came to kelowna to collaborate with the folks at Dual Influence and now it's gonna happen!) This night is going to be super steamy and tight packed with amazing dance performances, live music, and a social dance to top it all off. I suggest you bring lots of water, you're going to need it!! 💦💦💦❤❤🎵🤗😄 . . . . . #kelownamusic #latinmusic #latindance #latinfusion #kelowna #dance #okanaganmusic #worldmusic #vernon #salsa #kizomba #bachata #dancers #socialdance #music #dancecompany
