notes
"Buffalo Tales" tells a story - from the beginning to the end - songs about truth, seasons, relationships, love, open spaces, and slower times. To listen closely to Bunny's own Lakota-inflective Folk genre you may hear the sound of a soaring heart, a growing tree, or the wind dancing around it.
"O Great Spirit" an ancient Lakota prayer put to music circles the end of this album full of earth honoring sounds punctuated by Lakota "love" flute made by an elder still living on the Pine Ridge reservation.
Here are the sounds of Mother Earth to bring you back to nature and the HEART of the Black Hills where Bunny lives as the wide open sage covered prairies still live with buffalo, and in song she creates a place you will want to return again and again in music that resonates from this sacred land.
A truly original sound - Buffalo Tales showcases Bunny's beautifully recognizable voice and acoustic live performance style.
To the indiginous Lakota (Sioux)the buffalo represented abundant peace and harmony in all aspects of life - their whole world. Yet their dreams and prophecys foretold a time of world trouble would come before true "buffalo" abundance would again cover the earth.
"Each song is a pearl"- Willy Priem-Belgium
"...melodies alternately lilt and soar. Her lyrics sometimes joyfully, sometimes poignantly, but always vividly, call to mind the Black Hills she loves."
Panache Magazine
Audiences young and old are mesmerized with Bunny's relaxed and artful use of Native American flute and Lakota drum to punctuate her unique and sensitive acoustic guitar accompaniment.
On the CD insert, complete with photos and stories of each song that relays Bunny's love of the land and deep appreciation for the connectedness of all things,
Bunny writes:
"I pray that the spirit of the white Buffalo will soon abound to bless the red, black, white and yellow (all) peoples of the earth, in a time of abundant peace for ALL living things...and it is sure to come."
Bunny's songwriting skills and hauntingly beautiful sound focus on the intricate beauty of word pictures, full of emotion, and straight-from-the-heart. The thoughts and feelings they inspire linger long after the music stops.
Original song titles include:
"More Than a Mountain"
(a song inspired by a visit to Crazy Horse Memorial),
"Dance Buffalo Dance"
"...and show me the way that I should walk.
Dance Buffalo, Dance!
Rejoice in the life we all have got,
Dance Buffalo, Dance,
tell me the words of the song to talk
about
Rainbow Spirit
to guide us to the end..."
and "Buffalo Tales"
(about a real life tourists buffalo experience in Custer State Park)
Her first album "Sacred Ground" released just 4 months before "Buffalo Tales" is also available at cdbaby.com or order an AUTOGRAPHED CD from her website at www.bunnysingswolf.com.
In 2003 she released the long awaited "White Haired Sunrise" with its striking song "Freedom" complete with Lakota words that came in a dream.

I really like Kate Wolf and these are excellent interpretations of some of her songs. I especially like the original songs. This is very peaceful music that is good for the spirit.
Big fan of Native American flute (R.Carolos Nakai) & folk music
author: Robert Breslin USN Ret.I am, indeed, enjoying your 3 CD's...received in good order and very quickly...and ENJOY the way you have incorporated Nat. Amer. flute and Folk music with your style of story telling. Reminds me of R. Carlos Nakai...one of my favorite artists...terrific! I am 1/4 Indian, 1/4 French Canadian & 1/2 Irish and was amazed at how much all these seem to mix and drift through your music. You are a very talented lady and I hope to hear more from you in the future. Best wishes from an old warrior.
