"White Mountain Journal" is one of Dancing Cat Record's Masterworks series...and so much more.
In the hands of Keola Beamer, the strings of the slack key guitar become not just elements of a musical instrument, but the threads of a gossamer spider web linked to each listener. Through them Beamer reaches into that place that touches all of us to stir the deep currents and send them cascading into our hearts and minds as a welcome flood of new perceptions. I offer this gentle warning. As you listen to this album and read the liner notes, you may find the night mists of Mauna Kea forming before your own eyes, even if you are far from Hawaii's great mountain and the distant cries of owls beneath a star filled sky.
