LYRICS & LEGENDS

REVIEWS

 



Continuing in a style that began with her debut CD: "Rise Again Truth", firmly rooted in the Roots Reggae Tradition, the music of Tchiya Amet is a blend of Indigenous and Contemporary cultures and rhythms. This music keeps the culture, myths, legends and rhythms of the Ancestors alive.This music carries the wisdom and the teachings of the Elders forward into the future, by reaching out to the youth of today.

"Black Turtle Island" seeks to express the voice of a nation denied the most basic of human rights, time and time again: the right to self-determination, even the right to exist.

The existence of Indigenous Black Indians of Turtle Island is a controversial topic in Indian Country today. Nevertheless, we continue to exist, and we continue to make music.

With remnants of Ancient Traditions, Tchiya Amet has crafted a colorful cultural quilt, to provide warmth and comfort to the Indigenous peoples of the 4 Directions during these trying times.


OTHER RHYTHMS INCLUDE: AFRO-CUBAN, AFRO-POP, DOO-WOP, SKA, SADE, NATIVE CHANTS AND BEYOND...

SAN JOSE MUSIC IN THE PARK! OPENING FOR REGGAE LEGEND: FREDDIE MCGREGOR!

This is a weekly series of free summer concerts at Cesar Chavez Park.

This performance is being sponsored by Alice @ 97.3 and

The Humane Renaissance Movement

"REC*REATION IS RE*CREATION  TM This is the Mantra for the Humane Renaissance Movement- and name of programs presented by the HRM.  Come join us and actualize your spirituality through sports,recreation,”A Kind Heart with Helping Hands” and  “Common Unity “.

The Humane Renaissance Movement  (HRM) is a not for profit organization. We have a fiscal sponsor now,with a Tax ID # and will get our own 501c3 in the future.  The name means; Humane- marked by compassion, sympathy, or consideration for humans or animals. Renaissance-a rebirth, renew and revival of. Movement- is either the appearance or increased popularity of a specific school of philosophy. So, we are simply a group of people that “love people and want to do good for all people”, using sports, recreation, “A Kind Heart with Helping Hand” and “ Common Unity”."

 

During this performance, I will give the entire audience a chance to expereince Cosmic Sound Healing:

moonfull

Next Celestial Event: Full Strawberry Moon is fullest on June 15. Make mine ORGANIC!!!
It will still be full for the performance at San Jose Music in the Park!

Summer Solstice occurs on June 21st at 1pm. There is much to observe this summer in the night sky, according to the folks at Star Gazer, "Those Starry Summer Nights are Coming".

 

Pay special attention to the dates of June 25-28, with the Moon, Jupiter, Mars and Venus. Synchronistically, this occurs during Freddie McGregor's birthdate of June 27!! Jack Horkheimer passed away in 2010, but his passion for observing the night sky will live on....

 

The Sun is in the True Sign of Taurus: May 14 until June 19. That is good to know, because the weather feels more like Spring than early summer where I am these days.... great weather for gardening, but not so good for swimming at the river! Waaay too cold and the current is still very strong...

Mayan Calendar: Sixth 18 day cycle of the Universal Underworld is June 7th through June 24th 2011.

 

In Reality, the Evolution of Consciousness doesn't know time, so, in reality, the shift is going on all of the time. In fact, it already happened, and is still happening. We are consciously and continuously co-creating our reality, so make it a GREAT one! Why wait for the end, when the journey is so fascinating? JUST LIVE!!!



Here is a photo from the Round Valley Elementary School fundraiser
this Spring, performing with the Valley of Light Trio (Kevin Wells on
drums; Larry Hamilton on Bass) and special guest on percussion.

There are some other songs as well, full length. Equinox is still available for free diownload. I forgot to turn it off last year!

Reggae on the River | July 17 & 18 2010

Reggae on the River
www.reggaeontheriver.com

It has been almost 10 years since I first performed at this event. So much has happened since then. The biggest change being that now, I live right down HWY 101 from the festival grounds! Tchiya Amet and the Light House Band take the stage on Saturday, Julty 17 at 11am. That's right, we are opening the event. Usually, this spot is reserved for a Native or Tribal Elder. Hmmm... We will be playing some of your favorite tunes from the first two cds, as well as a few tunes from the new one, entitled, "Celestial Folk Music".

Here are some photos from ROTR 2001.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

That same weekend is also the weekend of the Conscious Convergence! Some of you might recall the vibrational shift during the Harmonic Convergence way back during August 1987. Here is the website: www.theconsciousconvergence.com

"The Conscious Convergence is in full swing now. World events and crises are giving apt focus for a world expressing unity consciousness. Now more than ever it is time to join together in heart and mind to help bring enlightened awareness and right-action to humanity and for our beloved Gaia." - Joseph Giove

Shared Intention Agreement

I, as a sovereign being, join together with All That Is to call forth the presence of balance and unity within me and in our world. I am the conscious presence of harmony and reconciliation and I am grateful for the wholeness I bring forth in this and every moment. And so it is.
