  • Laura Simms music CD and Cassette.  The stories on Making Peace ~ Heart Uprising are about transforming aggression into compassion. They can be listened to as a continuous story within a story, or as single pieces. The hidden, unspoken story is the experience of oneness, and the magic inherent in both myth and our everyday events. “Making Peace – Heart Uprising is a love song combining traditional stories with contemporary, true narrative and world music. It is also an invocation to the magic in urban centers from L.A. to N.Y.; and to the potential light within the turmoil and spiritual hunger of our world.
