about

Sleeping Buffalo was written during a Residency at the Banff Centre for Arts & Creativity, March 2017, Nakoda Country, Turtle Island, Canada, and was inspired by the majestic Sleeping Buffalo Mountain snoozing outside our studio window.

lyrics

in the shadow of sleeping buffalo / along the spine of the river bow / step on the stepping stones / they're old as the bones here / far back as the stoney go / their stories are home here / hang those memories out to dry on the treeline / they are steeped in the soil / and patches of grey skies / so take your time / but don't forget to take it / give over your mind to the lay line ...
