The Native Rose Band - Live in Concert

On October 27th, 2023 Kevin and I received a call from our friend Jan Michael Looking Wolf. Jan wanted to know if we'd be willing to come to Eugene in November to shoot live footage of his new musical project Native Rose. Kevin and I looked at each other, blinked a few times said "Yes" in unison. Jan had no idea we'd just returned from the Missoula County Courthouse where we had quite literally just gotten married. The offer felt like the Universe's wedding gift to us. Or Jan's. Or both.

We shot with three cameras: two GoPros on tripods and a roaming iPhone. We learned a lot (especially about the importance of correct lighting settings on any camera being used in a dark concert hall and certain pitfalls of "cinematic" mode on iPhone15). Mostly we had an amazing time basking in the music and the excellent energy of everyone in attendance; it was a beautiful night and we were so honored to be a part of it.

Editing "We Can Live As One" over the past weeks has been a welcome chance to relive the magic of the concert and the power of One Heart.  May the performance bring you the hope and peace it did for us -- and hayu-masi to Jan, RG and the Native Rose Band!
