The Fourth Ascent
Alan Santiparro...

GET WELL SOON

Today I am releasing my first EP of bedroom recordings as Santiparro, a name that I was given by a Marakame (shaman) of the Huichol people while on a pilgrimage to their holy lands known as Wirikuta.

The Ecology Of Consciousness And The Shift Of Ages

What is occurring in the Gulf of Mexico is not an isolated incident. It is only one component part to an entire ecology of unconsciousness. This is the same unconsciousness that allows the removal of mountaintops that have evolved over millions of years, the damming of rivers that have formed throughout great shifts of world ages, and the systematic deforestation of the entire planet.

Evolvers on Tour

Immediately following the Permaculture project I'll be working on this September on the Pine Ridge Reservation, my good friend Ian Saylor and I will be hitting the road with our acoustic guitars, nature survival skills, and wolf totems. We haven't booked all of the shows yet because we need your help. We'd really like to meet fellow evolvers along the way.
