Cari Cole proudly professes, "I am a singer~songwriter/recording artist.. my record, The Circle of Fire is inspired by the NY Times bestseller, The Four Agreements by don Miguel Ruiz. The title cut is co-authored by don Miguel. The record is released by Amber Allen Publishing (publishers of Miguel's books). I am a poet, a dreamer, a John Lennon devotee, a believer in all things possible beyond the realm of ordinary thinking, I know that thoughts create reality... I am an avid yogini, beach walker, sunset tripper, modern woman. I believe in the pure potential of every human being and the power of love, a singer-songstress four (4) the world!"
"Cari's music inspires us to live the vision of a new dream; the dream of heaven on Earth. She is one of the greatest artists of our time, "

Cari Cole (listen while you read) is an award winning singer-songwriter who has captured a steadily growing audience since her 2002 release, The Circle of Fire: an intimate and honest expression of life seen through the eyes of love. Musician, composer, poet, and singer, Cari Cole, has walked the shaman's path to create a music and artistry that heals. 'Transformational Music' is what listeners are calling "The Circle of Fire," the inspirational debut CD on Amber-Allen Publishing.
Stay tuned for a very special conversation between Cari Cole and me as we discuss the shaman-musician's role in facilitating well-being for humans on an earth journey!
1. At what age were you introduced to music? What musical instruments do you play? An important acknowledgement for us all, at what point did you consider yourself a musician?
2. What musician(s) did you admire growing up? What album or music project stands out in your mind as very influential perhaps in the development in your musical preference (you may mention more than one...)? When did you begin composing (do you remember your first original song)?
3. How would you describe your music genre? Do you remember making a choice in genre or is your preference in expression as it has always has been? In terms of style and presentation, what mainstream artist would you say is most similar to you? Your music has inherent spirituality and self-empowerment! How do you make that happen time and time again?
4. Don Miquel Ruiz is an admirer of your work and you share a publisher, I understand. What an admirable friendship! How did you meet him this extraordinary human being? You dedicated your project, The Circle of Fire, to his work, The Four Agreements, and co-wrote a song with him. What was that song? Why did you co-write the song with him? Through your music are you fulfilling your four commitments? How have you come to know this, Cari?
5. Let's talk for a moment about what you do for a living (your day job). Now, let us create a musical journey through your recent music project. What overall message did you want to send through Circle of Fire? What does your music convey regarding the importance that we express our authentic selves and be self-honest even in our life choices? What other messages do the songs in Circle of Fire speak individually and collectively?
6. What is your favorite role as a musician -- the composer, the producer, or the performer? Here is a hypothetical: You are in a room full of friends and fans, and you are asked to sing for us. What song is every one's top request (everyone's favorite song)? Do you have a personal song of power, a spiritual anthem that tells your story?
7. How much of your personal earth-journey do you share in your songs? You recently contributed to Michael Garfield's compilation, The Dream is Valid. Have you done that kind of sharing before or would you like to more sharing for a good cause?
8. What would you like the message in your music to sing to the children of the world? Are there some global issues you'd like your music to address and positively impact?
9. What is your next program or plan to take your music and its accessibility to another level?
10. Do you affiliate with a group of musicians who share resources through networking and cross promoting? What can the world expect from Cari Cole in the next year or so? How do we purchase Circle of Fire?
