About Shaolin Records:

About American Zen:
American Zen is led by The Coyote who fronts the band on flute and acoustic guitar. Coyote is a renaissance man who writes all the music, lyrics, and poetry. Coyote abandoned his San Diego and Los Angeles bandmates to pursue a promise of success from a cute blonde girl from Utah in 1991. With promises and a heart broken, Coyote is stuck in Salt Lake City, Utah, teaching Yang Tai Chi and Shaolin Kung Fu to Mormons. The Mormons are intolerant of "gentiles" and "nonMormons," and especially long haired Buddhist Hippie Californians. The religious, personal, and business conflicts with the Mormons resulted in Coyote creating his own sect of Zen Buddhism, Shaolin Zen in 1994. The LEVEL 1 = PEACE OF MIND album cover was shot by Ed Animal for the L.A.Rock Review Magazine.
