Native American flutist Golana« (Raven), a member of the Echota Cherokee Tribe, began a spiritual quest 15 years ago that completely changed his life and led to the release of five emotive, spiritual and award-winning albums. Often composing while in majestic settings such as the Sierras, Joshua Tree and Sedona, Golana«’s albums feature his entrancing flutes backed by acoustic guitar, acoustic grand piano, electronic keyboards, violin, cello and hand drums.
A three-time NAMMY (Native American Music Awards) nominee, Golana« sees his music as more than just entertainment. “When I play, it’s the long, drawn-out sounds of the flute that capture the feelings, the emotion and the passion in the compositions. The poignancy and slow pace of the songs helps me convey the feelings that inspired the writing of that music. I want the listener to slow down, match the mood of the music, and think about things.”
