New single out this week from the great Peter Rowan! It’s the title track from his upcoming album and features two Americana heavyweights as well: Molly Tuttle and Lindsay Lou. It’s a cosmic song inspired by his longterm interest in Tibetan music and culture and his friendship with the Tibetan singer Yungchen Lhamo. “This song appeared from infinite space,” Peter explained in the Wide Open Country premiere. Have a listen!
