Richard Soaring Owl and Keith Little Grizz known as Two Hearts are four time recipients of the “Silver Arrow Awards”, (for 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008. The awards are presented by Spirit Wind Records and Raven Hawk Productions,for Outstanding Contributions to Native American Music. Richard was adopted by a Mohawk elder, and shortly afterwards given the name, Soaring Owl. Keith Little Grizz's Native American heritage comes from his grandfather who was Abenaki. He was named Little Grizz as a boy when his grandfather observed Keith’s interactions with his siblings. It was Keith’s astounding curiosity and determination while at play that gave birth to his name. Their CD titled “Two Hearts” was released in April 2005. 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 his 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 weave his musical tapestries. The haunting and mesmerizing sounds could be heard throughout the Powwow grounds carried by the evening breezes. With the encouragement and persistence from Keith and other community members, they began to collaborate in playing the flute during the afternoon Powwow 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 that influenced Soaring Owl and Little Grizz to produce their first CD. Their first CD features solos from Richard and Keith, as well as several duet tracks. Some of the musical tracks include sounds of nature during its calm and its fury, along with the winged and four legged that live and share their space with us.
