        "bio" : "Jerry Palmer and Russ Hopkins have worked together for half their lives to create music that speaks to the soul. They strive for a musical environment where ones heart can crack open. Jerry has been a recording artist and composer for most of his adult life and has released many albums of his music. Russ has been Jerry's producer for over 20 years. Together they create a beautiful musical tapestry.\n\nWhen he was 23 Jerry Palmer recorded his debut album Night Song with six time Grammy winner Greg Nelson and three time Grammy winner Al Perkins. Then while visiting northern Colorado he heard the instrumental music of guitarist Alex de Grassi. Palmer took the discovery of de Grassi's music as a new life direction. Palmer recorded his first instrumental album Children Forever with Russ Hopkins of Kiva Records in 1987. Palmer and Hopkins teamed up again for Nevada Winds, which landed him a feature spot in some surprising places- on television as well as on supermarket music loops. It also found him on stage with steel string guitar legend Michael Hedges.\n\nRuss Hopkins has been a photographer, filmmaker, musician since his early teens. A native New Yorker, Russ settled in the west after studying psychology and cinema in Los Angeles. He founded Kiva Records in the early 80's and has since engineered hundreds of records and produced over sixty albums. He shares six national awards with Paul Taylor for Paul's album Cooee. Hopkins is a three time Best Sound Design winner with the Colorado Governor's award winning OpenStage Theatre Company. Hopkins' recordings have been licensed internationally, as have his photographs and films.",
