I would say a peace musician is one who is consciously creating through peace, with peace and centered in it.

Do you mean that we are using our music to make peace?

I started the idea of Peace Music about 6 months before David started this group. I think it is open to interpretation. For me, my music comes from a peaceful place inside of me and when people hear it, if they are open to it, they can feel the peace. They can relax and be at one with the music. My mission is to create a peaceful world by writing, recording, and performing music from the heart. To me, music from the heart, honest emotion, brings joy, peace, and happiness. I am sure some people might think that hatred can also come from the heart. I would have to disagree. I believe that hatred comes from the head. Love comes from the heart. All my opinions of course. As far as I am concerned, anyone who is truly a musician is communicating something beyond words. It goes to the heart. And hopefully, it is of a higher nature that can raise people up in a positive way.
love and peace always and everywhere,
Louis Landon

I think that musicians--like all artists--must be free to define themselves and their "body or work" as they see fit, which is why I believe that a "Peace" musician is, quite simply, one who identifies as one. As I am committed to helping bring about peace, hope and healing through my music, I feel very comfortable referring to myself as a "Peace" musician, and I gratefully accept that label from either the music industry or the general public. In my opinion, peace is my "ministry," and music is my vehicle.
