Keith's Native American heritage is Abenaki. As a
boy his grandfather would observe Keith’s
interactions with his siblings that gave birth to his
name, Little Grizz .
Richard is Native by heart. He was adopted by a
Mohawk elder, and shortly afterwards given the
name, Soaring Owl.
Their musical trade mark evolved around performing duets with the Native American
Flute. Although each has their own distinctive style, when playing duets, they are
taking their two independent hearts and combining them together to play as one.
Both Richard and Keith forged their unique musical bond while members of a Pow Wow drum called “First Light
Drum”, which performed in the New England area. During the midday intermission, Keith would often be asked to
play his flute.

It was Keith that recognized the haunting and free flowing style Richard expressed while playing the native flute.
Richard’s flute would only come out at night; he would sit quietly at his campfire and as he began to wind down from
the days drumming and singing, he would then weave his musical tapestries. With the encouragement and persistence
from Keith, they began to collaborate in playing the flute during intermissions.

Their performances reached a higher level when they decided to play their first duet. Shortly afterwards the audience
would sit mesmerized, listening to their compositions with anticipation in hearing a duet. It was the overwhelming
response by the audiences wanting to take their music home with them that influenced Soaring Owl and Little Grizz to
produce their first CD.
