"Music is a cultural journey through finding a native sound to who you are. In this album, I explored the instruments of my culture, people, and tradition and combined those with what I have learned through mainstream music form. I hope to send a unique listening experience that takes the listener to a new place that is stimulating and relaxing."---Brad Clonch (Mississippi Choctaw with Chickasaw Influences!)
