Headline:
"Bunny Owns the Stage at Historic Homestake Opera House!
...Bunny performs with a quiet charisma that I find impossible to describe. She owned the stage the moment she appeared to speak a few words, pick up a flute and begin to play, and then to pick up her guitar and sing. Her voice is rich with just a hint of breathiness, and is a force all its own. Her persona is pure peace with an underlying humor that caught the audience and led them to howl along with her on the “Moon” song.” March 2009, Rapid City Journal review of Bunny Sings Wolf, Black Hills Live Section
.
“In basic heart rhythms that take you to historic events as well as down the not often traveled peaceful back roads to slower, quieter times, Bunny’s sweet, deep, soft and almost Celtic voice is punctuated with hints of dynamic jazz, sometimes with country overtones when called for. Acoustic folk guitar, heartbeat drum, and each of her 10 custom-made white buffalo "bird" Native Flutes in various keys add another deep dimension in music to a soulful live performance experience.´ from Panache Magazine front cover story.
While living a simple life close to the land, Bunny Sings Wolf has learned to hear the gentle songs in the breath breezes of hills, streams, skies and wild open surrounding prairies where, since 1999, over 420 original songs have come to her in dreams, along with their natural lessons of healing.
Sent from the HEART of the sacred Black Hills her music has been called "Good Medicine" in a genre all her own dubbed “Lakota-inflective Folk Music” by Rapid City Journal. In the power of her soulful song where visible breath speaks there remains an undercurrent, a reverberating theme, reminding that we are the caretakers of the Earth and we are all relatives, related - Mitakuye Oyasin! (Lakota - we are all related, all my relations).
A consummate professional she is the recipient of a Wyoming Arts Council Performing Arts Fellowship Honorable Mention in 2019, the prestigious 2007 nomination in Canada's Aboriginal Peoples Music Choice Awards for her “Prophecy Keeper” album, commissioned to write and record the theme song “Jackalope” for a Sundance film created in Wyoming, and her recently released “Sevens” written and recorded to honor the beautifully preserved and respectfully maintained lands embodied in and surrounding the golf course and new 77 Steakhouse and Saloon perched on the red cliffs overseeing the town of Hulett, WY.
With ten solo, self-produced music CDs and listeners around the globe purchasing her music at Itunes, Spotify, Amazon and various other online music stores, as well as from her official music web site at www.bunnysingswolf.com, her long-time loyal fan base continues to grow worldwide.
In concerts and workshops, performing her original music along with a few carefully selected covers in contemporary, folk, and country genres, her music carries perspectives from and is reminiscent of indigenous earth connections AND the early pioneer spirit of her ancestors since she is descendant of relatives who fought on BOTH sides in the Battle of the Little Bighorn.
Bunny’s birth name was incorporated in a traditional Lakota naming ceremony to include "Sings Wolf". She was told this name - Mastinchana Sungmanido Lowanpi - was to remind her that it has taken many crushed bunny hearts to feed and nourish a wise wolf teacher who must now sing out with the strength of heart and conviction of her wisdom to demonstrate the ability to shape-shift from a bunny’s quiet protective stillness blending under the shadows of the moon (like the meaningful thoughtful pauses between notes in a well delivered song), to morph into the resounding strength and passion of a powerful wolf voice, a mother-like teacher and coach gifting her students the freedom of an unencumbered spirit; a well-traveled, family, tribe and nation nurturing alpha wolf woman, sending soulful voice far and wide in songs to heal a heart, a nation, a world.
True to her name, her songwriting inspiration continues to focus on the intricate beauty of word pictures straight-from-the-heart in story songs about hills, seasons, little known history, truth seeking, friendship, love, world peace, beauty, and comforting open and still wild undiscovered spaces, old ranchers, mining towns, and her many experiences of life in melodies punctuated with her peacefully artful use of Native American flute, Lakota drum and her unique self-taught and sensitive acoustic guitar accompaniment.
Now...in 2022....
Bunny is working on self-publishing her first book – an entertaining, comical book showing the way to bring awareness to the use and misuse of the English language, and how common words and phrases used often can mean a number of things depending on the situation.
ALSO – Please stay tuned for the launch of Bunny’s new coaching app called IndigenousHealing.io soon to be available for download on Apple and Google app stores everywhere!
Bunny now works day and night in creating a teaching, coaching, mentoring app to gather many more good hearts affected by the pandemic, with many more new songs, calming flute music with video coaching to artfully share her life honoring wisdom, knowledge and experiences with indigenous healing ways expressed in her many dream songs, along with their many healing lessons.
Those who join her in-app community will be welcomed into her home via video chats and many lessons and stories from the sacred Black Hills where she lives. Coaching presentations will introduce them to peaceful Wyoming along with all their healing relatives around the world in regular in-app community zoom calls where one-on-one encouragement, discussions, demonstrations and songs will be offered to all to discover and share their own unique gifts and passionate positivity to encourage and support all to thrive during these healing times on Mother Earth.
Bunny has dreamed that all subscribers who successfully complete several of the 6 week challenges that will teach, coach and encourage one to live in the practice of joy, gratitude and love instead of fear, will receive an invitation to personally travel to Wyoming (hopefully as soon as 2023) to gather and join hands and heart in a complete unbroken circle around the tower (Devils Tower, WY). They will be calling this place by the Lakota name, Mato Tipila, to signify it's long indigenous viewpoint of it representing powerful bear totem healing properties as a landmark and sacred mountain it was believed to be by many indigenous tribes who visited this site for centuries in order to pray for peace and healing.
To do this peacefully, respectfully and successfully in this modern day, will take some in-app pre-coaching as well as commitment of at least 2000 people to close the circle holding hands (preferable around 4500 maximum for this event, is the number that Bunny dreamed, as this large gathering will go "viral" as it will be filmed from several locations around the tower, and made into several videos to be posted and shared "live") for all the world of humanity to see from their hand held phones.
The purpose of the envisioned event will be to create living artwork (and if it proves popular, may become a yearly event at the monument) that will be filmed and broadcast worldwide to show the people of all races, ethnic groups, color and culture together as one, dynamically demonstrating to the world what a living, breathing picture of a beautiful mix of diverse, kind, compassionate, loving humanity healing looks and lives like.
The event will bring to mind the lyrics of John Lennon's well-loved song "imagine"...(which will be the theme and name of a lesson in one of many of the in-app challenges being produced beginning in April 2023.)
The app purpose is to also to “adopt” everyone who joins the circle as world-wide relatives who walk their passion with courage to express their own unique gifts with the needed impact to really...heal a heart, a nation, a world.
The following photos give an idea and introduction to IndigenousHealing.io app offered by “Gramma Bunny” to encourage and invite any who wish to join, to solidify and strengthen and imagine a day, hopefully sooner than later, when human-kind live and truly practice peace in the world with all our relations. Mitakuye Oyasin (we are all related)
