dawnbreaker collective performance!

we had the great honor of having a few people from the dawnbreaker collective performing for us last night. the dawnbreaker collective are a group of solo artists who gathered to create a "straight-up Baha'i album." it's a mixture of many different music genres, all with a spiritual theme. they show that it's possible to be cool, true to your religion - and still do well in the entertainment industry.

and they performed for us last night!


it was really amazing to have them there, not only for their musical ability and skills (great voices, freestyling talents and guitar skills), but also for their messages - both in their lyrics and when presenting the songs. I think it was very inspiring for us all there, to see these guys and girls showing us that you can make it as a Baha'i in the entertainment industry, without compromising your beliefs. it was also really great to see how much they enjoyed each other's music and performances, randomly jumping in and singing along, and really just going for it. amazing stuff! :)

my album from last night is here, videos will be coming up later on facebook. read a bit more here, and on their official website, where you can also buy their cd (you should!). I bet you these guys will be around for quite some time!
