Dear Friends,
I have great news! My long-awaited chanting CD is finally finished!
Folks have been asking for several years now when I was going
to put out a recording of the chants that I often lead at church
services and spiritual retreats. I have been blessed to have connected
with an amazing group of musicians, and together we call ourselves
ONE LOVE Devotional Chant.
Our CD is a live chanting experience, recorded with a chorus of
wonderful singers that sang with us on the call-and-response chants.
The music is an eclectic blend of styles from various traditions
and cultures. For some of you who know me mainly by my singer-songwriter
work, this CD is definitely a journey into new territory, a whole
different genre of music. We love it and find it very uplifting,
and I hope you will as well.
You can listen to samples from the CD at www.onelovechant.com
.
Now, we were hoping to have the CD ready by mid-fall, and then
early December, and then…we’ll, you know how these
things go. At this writing, it’s still at the plant being
pressed, and probably will be delivered just in time to fling
it into Santa’s sleigh as he heads out on his big ride.
So, if all goes as it should (ha!) it should be in your stocking
by Christmas. You can order from my music
page on this site.
This spring we will be beginning our CD release tour, and we are
working on booking those dates now. If you want us to come to
your town, to your church or spiritual community, please contact
us. We’d love to include you in our itinerary.
As we move into the winter holidays, I will once again be offering
my holiday song “There Would Be Peace”
for sale on this website. It is a single track, available on CD
or as an mp3 download (visit the music page to hear an audio clip).
The CDs are only $3 each, and they come in a pretty purple package—they
make great stocking stuffers, or can be sent in a card. I have
a limited supply of these CDs, so please order early (before Dec.
12th) if you want to get some. Shipping is $3.00, no matter how
many you order—a great deal!
And, from now until Dec. 12th, if you order two or more of my
other full-length CDs, you will get a FREE copy of “There
Would Be Peace” included in your order!
Thanks, everyone. May your holiday season be a time of connection,
depth, and true abundance--an abundance of the gifts that can’t
be bought or sold. May we all enjoy peace in our lives, and may
there be peace in the world.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jody
