The Hippy Coyote - One Man Band

  Album reviews of American Zen's second album, Level 2 = Christ Killer,
      are giving Coyote the credit he is due as one the world's foremost flute players and songwriters.

PR_AmZen January 2008
Press Release of American Zen
LEVEL 2 = CHRIST KILLER is American Zen's second album on Shaolin Records
     and their 2nd Level of Shaolin Zen Buddhism.

Artist: American Zen featuring The Hippy Coyote
Product: cd record album, mp3 song or album downloads, and the same from iTunes AAC mp4 format
Title: LEVEL 3 = I WANT YOU TO LOVE ME
Event: 3rd Level of Buddhist Enlightenment

After years of trying to lure his bandmates back, our lonely hippie decided to take up the drums. “For forty years I’ve been dependent upon drummers to help me build or perform my songs in the studio. Normally, each year I learn, or relearn a Kung Fu weapon. I decided that in 2007 I would make THE DRUMS my weapon of the year. By 2008 I was getting pretty good and recorded a few songs on Buddha Zhen’s album, TAI CHI MAGIC 1. Two songs may use the drum set, otherwise I just tore up the drum set and played the drums individually Chinese style,” explains Coyote.

“But LEVEL 3 = I WANT YOU TO LOVE ME is my first album as a real drummer. There are only two songs that I didn’t put my drumset on: “All Alone,” and “Change Your Mind.” Those songs had my 50 gallon black oil drum and I wanted to keep them that way in remembrance of my first drum: that 50 gallon black drum from Utah. I’ve still got the drumhead-lid because it’s all beat up and looks like a big black rose flower with its cracks...”

Coyote also invented a new style of poetry: “bass poetry.”

About American Zen
American Zen is led by The Hippy Coyote who fronts the band on flute and acoustic guitar. Coyote is the "Kung Fu Cowboy" who studies Shaolin Kung Fu, and with their latest record, LEVEL 3 = I Want You To Love Me, has somehow become the band's drummer also. Although Coyote worked hard to get his bandmates back, the band was destroyed when our booking agent promised us we would make more money in Utah--and Coyote got stranded there caring for her kids.
