Los Angeles, CA. (Top40 Charts/ Faith Rivera Official Website) - Earlier this year, Kauai-born Los Angeles singer-songwriter Faith Rivera debuted songs from her new album Maluhia ~ Everyday Peace aboard the Peace Train, featuring living legends of non-violence like Arun Gandhi, Yolanda King, Dolores Huerta & more. Now available on iTunes and www.FaithRIvera.com, Maluhia brings together groovy, organic folk-rock, hip-shakin rhythms, eclectic pop/R&B/world arrangements, contagious songs, and a positive message to empower the Peacemaker in YOU! It parties on "peace" in languages from around the world with 'Peace Jam,' powerful ballads and New Thought Songwriters Tribute Nominee, Standing As One'. The soulful 'Gifts The
Storm May Bring' was written for Bro. Ishmael Tetteh, founder & leader of the Etherean Mission in Ghana, in support of his book, 'The Way Forward'. Upbeat and groovy, 'Tu?laya' is based on an ancient chant recognizing that we have been, and continue to be, on a sacred journey, and was written in support of spiritual teachers Sri Ram Kaa and Kira Raa, while the melodic ballad 'Peace Today' holds a dedication to the lone man who stood for peace in the face of oncoming tanks on Jun 5th, 1989 at Tiananmen Square.
