"This Album
is dedicated to all those who understand the Power and Magic of Music--
to the Family of My Birth and the Family of My Heart, to Coyotes and
Divas, to Bards and Healers, to Warriors and Teachers, to Seekers and
Dreamers, and to my mother, Yuko Jinmaku. You taught me the meaning of
Beauty, Grace and Strength. I still miss you.
Health,
Harmony, Healing and Hope,"

Comments
from the crowd...
I
can't include them all, though
I do wish I could... I am so honored by the comments you have made, and
so happy to hear that my music is out in the world and doing some good.
When people write me or tell me that my music has pulled them
through difficult times, helped them with the loss of a loved one,
brought back a wonderful memory, or made them feel strong, joyful and
empowered, it serves as a reminder that the music will be heard by the
people who need to hear it, when they need to hear it. |

Duke Egbert, The Daily Vault:
There
isn't a bad
track on The Balance, but special note should be given to the eerily
beautiful "One Night," the poignant "Daedalus," the title track,
"Heartfelt," "Back To Beltane," the aforementioned "Ding, Dong, The
Witch Ain't Dead" (one of the funniest songs it's been my privilege to
hear in a very long time), and the soaring "Merry Meet," the CD's
close. I remember falling asleep in my tent at PSG to Heather singing
"Merry Meet" from the stage across the road, and it was magnificent.
Heather
Jinmaku is
a wonder -- a gentle, light-filled soul who can also kick out the jams
like nobody's business. The Balance is a great, great debut, and I look
forward to more from her.

From CD Baby:
(if
only I had room for them all...)
WOW!
The woman can definitely SING. Even more impressive is a heart and mind
that crafts such moving, lovely songs I hear spine tingling echoes of
Joni Mitchell, Dar Williams and Joan Baez at their best. The
heartbreaking story of 'Indian School' would make even Custer weep.
Daedaulus touches on eternal themes of destiny and the helpless love
and fears of a parent for a child finding their way. She can also rock
out with a smoky blues takeoff on Oz's witch that will make you laugh
and dance. BUY THIS RECORD and listen with someone you love.--"Tuna"
The music
Heather produces can make you float with the clouds one moment and then
the next, you're moving and dancing like your body has just found
life.....Amazing!!!!--Carlene
Exceptionally
beautiful songs on this Cd, sung with the voice of the Goddess of Song.
Truly Impressive, enchanting and spellbinding! Can't wait to hear more
from this Artist!--Michelle Mays |
