aloha all, my name is Lauren Rose and the song, Desert Dawn, was written by my dear friend Christina, when we were on a backpacking journey together through the Grand Gulch, way out in the desert, and I would pray and sing and frolic and make offerings of song as we journeyed along together because the area is so sacred and totally remote and she wrote this poem, when we were deep in that canyon.... among all the ancient puebloan ruins... we are from Colorado, and she was long time friend's with the String Cheese family... and so she gave them the poem she wrote about me on our adventure in this sacred place and they made it into a song, i think Kang wrote the music? but not sure... She actually has written the lyrics to a few of their songs. So that is how this song was born in a way, she also took me on tour with them and we got to travel in their bus and stuff for a couple weeks way back in the day because of their connection. Roots run deep. Anyways, when YOU say this song is good medicine for you, you literally give my life more meaning, because i am grateful you enjoy it and i get something, from you getting something... and so it is good like that. I also just showed Christina a few of these comments and she was stoked too.... so Thanks for just being you out there! You all are so appreciated!! And I feel that way about everyone who has ever enjoyed this song. I am grateful for each of you. Hope you have a sweet day~ aloha nui loa , mitakuye oyasin ...

This song brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear it

[@gailj2266]

Same here. I've never heard it live but after listening to it so many times, I think I'd burst into tears if they ever played it to me live. Just so much pure beauty and happiness

I got an advertisement in the middle of this :( right during the segway into sweet emotion, talk about a buzzkill! Whoever is managing this account please check the monitization settings and set them up for ads at the start or end of the video. The grooves should not be interrupted!!
