dear fans,


I'm thrilled that we are having such an enthusiastic reaction to the song, "Out Of Our Heads" when we play it live. It gives me great hope that we are all on a course toward waking up and embracing the future as our own. To prevent any misunderstanding over the phrase, "Children of Abraham,"  I'd like to take this opportunity to clarify what this phrase means and what it's inception was.

Abraham is a prominent figure in both the Torah and the Koran, as well as in the Old Testament. He is claimed by both Arabs and Jews as their ancestor. In a statement from my co-author, Bill Bottrell writes, "The song invokes the phrase, "Children of Abraham" as a plea for peace between Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. We point a finger at the media and the leaders in any camp who incite hatred based on historical feuds. In the song, all parties are gently challenged to reconcile the past and ignore the war-mongers."
