Gadugi


Today was another incredible day to say the least. Though it was my day off as there were no scenes for Curly, I still went out to the set as today's set was the most beautiful location so far - on the stony banks of the exquisite Oklahoma stretch of the Illnois River. 

This was after woke up and fashioned a new song called "Gadugi". 

When I arrived, Kristina, (producer) asked me to interview for what's called the "EPK" That stands for electronic media kit, which is that "extra" part of a DVD that has interviews and how the movie was made. I of course enthusiastically agreed and told her that I was working on this song and then she said something to the effect of: "Why don't you sing it in the interview"... OKAY then!~  I upped the ante by offering to play/sing out in the middle of the river  (being that water is why we are all here). The whole film crew followed me out.. I am sure it's the best time they've had gathering footage so far. 

Now we're cookin' with gas!



That's Kristina on the right.. She is the "Goddess of why everything happens".

Awesome!





Dear everyone,

Please learn this Cherokee word and apply it to your world: Gadugi = Gadugi (Cherokee:ᎦᏚᎩ) is a term used in the Cherokee language which means "working together" or "cooperative labor" within a community.

Thank you!
XOBen
