Biography:
Golaná's music uplifts, inspires and expresses a reverence for the Earth and all of humanity. Golaná, whose name means “Raven”, is of Cherokee descent. He calls himself a “rock sitter” and composes while he’s out in nature in such pristine settings as the Sierras, Joshua Tree and Sedona.
“The natural world has always been a big part of my life. I always loved the outdoors” says Golaná (a.k.a Scott Cunningham). “In the late 80’s, I moved from the ocean to a house on four acres of land and began my mountain and desert phase. About this time, I began exploring my Native American roots.”
“I took wilderness and nature classes and spent long hours alone in the outdoors but didn’t really find myself until I picked up the flute.”
“When I connected to the Creative Spirit, music poured through me evoking some long-forgotten memories. It was as though I became one with my instrument and the flute became my voice.”
Golaná's solo play focuses on the therapeutic and restorative powers of Native American flute music.
“When I sit quietly in nature something magical happens, and when I ask the Creator to play through me, soothing melodies flow forth and I'm filled with a sense of peace.”
Golaná is a member of the Bear River Band of the Southern Cherokee Nation, and a gifted composer and interpreter of the Native American and contemporary flute.
