New Tunes!

Bryan Jay and myself (Makete Roesch) just recently spent a couple days recording some tunes whilst in Putumayo, Colombia. We will be releasing an album sometime in March 2018. In the meantime, we will be dishing out tasty little video appetizers such as this one.

This album will serve the dual purpose of putting soulful, spirited, heartfelt music into the world... and, all proceeds and contributions will go directly to support the conservation, education, and community empowerment programs of The Peoples' Forest Project in Colombia.

There is currently a 200 hectares (almost 500 acres) parcel of pristine Amazon jungle for sale in Putumayo for only $10,000 usd. The land is located just down the way from where we recorded these songs (where Bryan is now indefinitely residing, pursuing personal growthj, and implementing programs with TPFP). We are praying and dreaming of purchasing this land for the sake of conservation--i.e. the preservation of the waters, animals, and native plants (including native plant medicines) in this area. Purchasing this land would help prevent the potential of oil, timber, and/or cattle exploitation on this beautiful, vital land.

If anyone would like to help us make this dream come true, please contact us.

warm blessings,

Makete and Bryan Jay

p.s. I, Makete (author of this post) am a good friend and musical soul brother of Bryan Jay-- and after our most recent musical/medicinal/laughter-filled journeys together in Putumayo, Bryan has declared me a co-founder of TPFP. I am very honored and grateful to be a part of this mission, and I believe very strongly in it!

More music and photos and videos on the way soon!
