Janice-Marie Johnson - Until The Eagle Falls EP 2002
Until The Eagle Falls, The EP by Janice-Marie Johnson, WITH a BONUS MUSIC VIDEO INCLUDED.
In 2002, Janice Marie returned to the pop music world in the new millennium with deeper inspiration than ever before... an inspiration seeded in her Native American roots.
As a girl, Janice-Marie Johnson was fascinated by stories her mother shared with her concerning their Indian heritage. However, after recent studies with historians Mercedes Wallace, Clarence Cameron, and Robert Tree Cody, Janice-Marie discovered her specific ties to the Stockbridge-Munsee Tribe of Wisconsin. This connection became warmly and profoundly solidified when she attended a Pow Wow in Gallup, New Mexico. Through her embracing of her people’s songs and dance, the spirit of this ancient ancestry impacted her heart, mind and soul.
As a gesture of gratitude to all of the people who took part in that magical weekend, Janice-Marie composed the song "Until The Eagle Falls," which weaves legendary Native American mythology about how the eagle NEVER falls (and a haunting melody) into a tranquil and precious ballad of devotion...eternal. Robert Tree Cody - voted Best Male Artist at the Fifth Annual Native American Music Awards ("The NAMAs") - is a special guest on all mixes, playing traditional Native American flute and singing, as well as gracing the music video.
“Until The Eagle Falls” garnered Janice-Marie and John Barnes, the ‘Best Producer’ Award at the 2002 Native American Music Awards (“The NAMAs”). Janice-Marie was inducted into the Native American Music Award ‘Hall of Fame’ in 2008.
