His musicality is superb, as is that of his bandmates, and his singing is sublime and transcendent."~ Jai Uttal"When I hear this music I feel my soul rise up and start dancing."~ Sunshine Pressider, KMUD, Humboldt County, California"To experience the music of Shimshai is to be taken on a musical journey that celebrates the purest light of universal love. His beautiful voice and exquisite guitar playing evokes the spirit of Bob Marley, the subtlety of Jerry Garcia, and a powerful musical prayer to unite all humanity and spark the fire of change. It is a gift to the world and a blessing for us all."~ Robyn Shanti, Dharma Wheel, KBOO PortlandSurrounded by music from birth and formally trained on piano, today Shimshai performs effortlessly on guitar, sitar, flute, and a variety of woodwinds.

A more impressive review, however, would come from my 14 year old daughter who gives it more air-time than Michael Franti OR the Grateful Dead when she is at my house.""I absolutely love it. Peter’s music touched my heart very deeply, moving me to tears, and it is still vibrating inside me. This music has a tremendous potential to bless the world."To Listen to Shimshai’s music, please visit:http://www.shimshai.comhttp://www.myspace.com/shimshaihttp://www.facebook.com/pages/Shimshai/49640095729Please share this message with your friends and networks!
