Loving

to the

collaborative

Welcome

We are a collaborative that empowers loving support to the tribe & nature through art, music, folklore, and dance, nurturing us through all the complexities of life and bringing us together.

We were born to be loved in tribe; it is our birthright

It is woven into our evolutionary biology to be of service to each other and to be valued. As hunter-gatherers, we could not survive without one another; we raised and nourished our families together. Our ancestors knew that our bonds were sacred for thriving not just surviving, so as well as master hunter gatheres, they became poets, dancers, and artists, touching each other's deepest happiness and sorrow, expressing our sentient souls, experiencing life together.

We combine a deep understanding of our evolutionary psychology & biology with folkloric traditions that were passed through generations nuture our needs as a social sentient species.

TLC Music

music

This music is the living revolution, played and recorded by people that are the change we need in the world right now, warriors growing uncontaminated food for young families to grow strong, fathers that honour their children & their mothers, people who protect the earth, and peace weavers from wars.
