BIOGRAPHY:
LEVEL 3 = I WANT YOU TO LOVE ME is the third album from American Zen. Recorded in Tujunga and completed during his eviction to Montrose, California, this album represents Coyote\'s nonpolitical personal spirituality. The 12 poems all contain bass by Coyote that adds a new dimension to his poetry. Coyote\'s first album as a drummer pushes the band into more aggressive rock\'n\'roll and surf music.
LEVEL 2 = CHRIST KILLER is the second album from American Zen. It continues the story of THE HIPPY COYOTE, bandleader who got lured to Utah by a cute blonde girl. His years in Utah cemented his Zen Buddhism.
LEVEL 1 = PEACE OF MIND tells the true stories of Coyote\'s battle with the MORMONS of Salt Lake City, Utah. Rescued by the Chinese, Coyote emerges at the forefront of the Asian community performances.
Born in Pacific Beach, California, deported to Canada, graduated High School at Prince Of Wales Collegiate, lived on a boat in Newfoundland, and hitchhiked North America from coast to coast and Vancouver to Baja Mexico...always carrying a guitar, a flute, or at least a harmonica.
Coyote is the Folk Rock Troubadour.
