Lizzie West:
After picking up the guitar at 23, I taught myself to sing through my soul. I took to the holy road and spent the last nine years researching how things seem to work on earth. After growing through The Machine, fighting censorship, and losing both my parents to Cancer, in a sudden two years, I’m still learning how to alter reality and live in the now...I'm just now beginning to understand what the songs are trying to say to me, codes for the journey Home. The Dharma Dog gave me his eye, Mama gave me herself and the clouds. The manifestor, Laura, wouldn't give up, and I found my Baba Buffalo (Anthony Kieraldo) at the cafe in front of a tennis ball lemon tree. That's when I watched another kind of White Buffalo be born, the kind that has people for legs, dreams for a brain, music for a heart and the movement shaking through it when it wakes. I hope you'll travel with us as we grow on the holy road and with Holy Road Tours. My life has been about this for nine years now... If you don't create your reality, your reality will create you...these days, we're al busy figuring out how to make this world a place we want to live in, love in and make babies in. - howling to you from the holy road, X=h/m, Lizzie

    Anthony Kieraldo:
    ...At age 24 is the White Buffalo. He has been playing music and performing since he was five. In 1999 he was recognized in DOWNBEAT Magazine for both composition and as a soloist on piano. In the summer of 2000 and 2001 he toured Peru with his trio, Treeonik in support of the independent release on AWSAM records of “You Choose” composed entirely of his original music. After studying a lot of music he left Boston and moved to NYC where he toured both nationally and internationally, performed, and recorded with many different musical genres and groups. Since meeting Lizzie West in 2005, he’s helped collaborate musically, artistically, and produces The Holy Road Medicine Show Podcast. Anthony represents the spirit of and believes that the White Buffalo is a symbol of something good that has begun

    Both:
    Lizzie West has been writing and performing songs of the holy road since she can remember. Her Independent release, the original "Holy Road" was followed by the re-make release on WARNER BROS. RECORDS. In response to that release, in 2003, Lizzie was named AOL and ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY'S "Artist Of The Year." In reaction to the censorship she experienced while inside "The Machine", Lizzie freed herself from the Major Label in 2004 and Independently released her limited edition EP "Something Good Has Begun." Lizzie's recordings have been used extensively in film and television, such as the film SECRETARY, and TV shows like Dawson's Creek, Third Watch, Mismatch, Alias, etc. She has been featured, singing her song, "holy road" in a national ad campaign directed by Spike Lee, performed The National Anthem at Madison Square Garden, toured as an opener for such artists as Chris Isaak and others, as well as headlined several of her own national tours.

    In April 2006, after suddenly losing BOTH her parents to Cancer (in the short span of two years), Lizzie healed herself by collaborating with Anthony Kieraldo, (AKA THE WHITE BUFFALO) to release her second album,"I Pledge Allegiance To Myself" (Appleseed Records, appleseedrec.com). The new album was greeted with stellar reviews. In conjunction with the release of "I Pledge", Lizzie, Anthony, their road manager Laura Parris, and their friends/"fans" founded HOLY ROAD TOURS (an artist in residence co-oping organization that focuses on bringing local communities, Independent businesses, national artists and their citizen fans together to develop fulfilling sustainable living methods).

    Lizzie has also written plays, a novel, driven across America 9 times, kept 48 art books of research on "creating her own reality" and is now learning to fly.

    The Dharma Dog has traveled the country with his mama five times. He
    exists for the sole purpose of motivating the anti-fear movement and
    supporting your bliss. He also likes to eat Holy Road creature treats.

    Laura:
    Laura Parris studied photography at Rochester Institute Of Technology and worked with Mitchell Gray at the height of his career. She started Mastermind Promotions in 1989. After hearing Lizzie on the radio and then spending a healing year with the album Holy Road, Laura came to a Lizzie West show in New York City, in early June 2004. She offered to have Mastermind Promotions help Lizzie recover from her time in the Machine. For the last two years, she has acted as Road Manager for Lizzie West and The White Buffalo, offered Mastermind Promotions as a Co-oping Partner of Holy Road Tours, and she's been the official photojournalist for Lizziewestlife.com. On the Holy Road, Laura is often referred to as the Manifestor.
