Like finding faces or characters in the clouds, James can do this by looking at a piece of wood found along a river bank or forest floor. He loves the outdoors and prefers living in a rural environment. And with the exception of high school art and an airbrush … [ Read the Rest... ]

New exotic bamboo didgeridoos at LA Outback

We’re excited to announce the birth of Will Thoren’s new Bamboo Multi Drone didgeridoos! “What really excites me”, says Will, “is these instruments enable me to craft solid multi drone instruments that are more affordable. After months of brainstorming it took some time to find a material that could achieve the specific shape necessary for this type of instrument and still maintain a natural and powerful sound.

Rather, this evocative term was coined by early anthropologists to represent the entirety of Aboriginal mythology, law, and … [ Read the Rest... ]
