“…Heart chakra music”…

~Jere Canote

There’s a song for that…

No matter what you’re going through, after 50 years of living full spectrum lives and making heartfelt music the entire way…I bet we’ve got a song for what you’re feeling today.

“I was at the original Woodstock ‘69 and that peaceful, loving essence still permeates all we do. When it comes down to it, people say they come to us for the love vibe. That’s why our listeners stick with us 30 years on = its the heart in all our music, our art, our courses and offerings.” -Kate Power

Travis John
Pearls, The Tribute

The tragic death of a young local Portland boy - Travis John - prompted Kate Power to pen one of the most celebrated songs of her fifty-five year career. Set to an exquisite tune, masterfully recorded with Steve Einhorn it became a much-beloved American anthem for love and loss. Listen to Travis John, the award-winning title track of Pearls, The Tribute Collection - and purchase the whole album of favorites today.

The song Travis John was unanimously awarded the grand prize by Music to Life (founded by Noel Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul & Mary) judged by an iconic songwriter panel that included Tom Paxton and Judy Collins at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Kerrville, Texas. We sang Travis John at every show for years in solidarity with Tracy Grammer (Book of Sparrows) who sang it nationwide, The story and music was featured in Sing Out! magazine, and carries on with Pete Seeger’s blessing as a song for peace . You can find more about the story in the blog section on Travis John.
