Montrose, California – May 4, 2010:

"Christmas Is" by The Hippy Coyote is on Kung Fu Cowboy PART 1

Shaolin Records releases its first Christmas song, "Christmas Is." Shaolin Records was launched in 1984. Our lack of holiday music isn't religiously restricted, despite our being of Buddhist origins.

This song was recorded on a 4-track cassette recorder in Salt Lake City, Utah. Coyote guesses it's from 1993 or 1994. Although the recording quality was limited, the vocal performance was genuine. Coyote didn't have confidence in his ability to equal it with his past few years of "bummer Christmases."

The original guitar and vocal tracks were converted to digital using the ProTools Mbox system. Then, the additional wah-wah guitars were added. The flute was borrowed from his daughter, Caitlin O'Connor.

The final bass guitar was Coyote's 1957 Green Rickenbacker 4000 bass that he has owned since 1976.

This Christmas song may resonate with people due to its references to money. "It's too easy to think of Christmas in money terms," sings Coyote. "Measuring our love by how much money we can burn."

We've also received compliments about the reference to Jesus, "The lift of living while thinking of, this birthday of a Holy Man."

Christmas is measured by our love
A simple kiss or handshake should be enough

About American Zen
American Zen is The Hippy Coyote who fronts the band on flute and electric guitar. Coyote is the "Kung Fu Cowboy" who studies Shaolin Kung Fu, and with his recent record, LEVEL 4 = Kung Fu Cowboy PART 2 has become the world's most astounding musician playing drums, electric bass, slide guitars, electric guitars, flute, harmonica, and a variety of other instruments and percussion. Coyote no longer performs or records acoustic guitar, since losing his Alvarez 12-string on December 3, 2009. However, with hundreds of songs recorded with his acoustic guitar since 1974, Coyote says he prefers his Marshall amplifier and wah-wah pedal now. All songs, lyrics, and poetry are composed by The Hippy Coyote, who has also written the novel, SID'S PLACE, and created the websites for each LEVEL of American Zen's ascent toward Heaven on their Zen Buddhist journey to Nirvana.

About Buddha Zhen
Zhen Shen-Lang "Truth Spirit-Wolf" or Spirit Wolf of Truth (The Chinese always put last name first.)
Buddha Zhen was recognized for his teaching skills while an Advanced Student of Tai Mantis Federation in early 1980s. However, Buddha Zhen, then known as Richard O'Connor, even passed up opportunities to perform with David Carradine, only considering his Shaolin Kung Fu to be a hobby. After moving to Utah in 1991, unable to find work in the record business or movie business, Kung Fu and Tai Chi became the only way for Buddha Zhen to support himself in Utah while being a Mr. Mom to two kids. Shaolin Chi Mantis was founded in 1992 and in 1996 Master Zhen created the Tai Chi Youth nonprofit 501(c)(3) charity organization for troubled youth. Buddha Zhen founded the Buddha Kung Fu school in 2008 which includes the Buddha Tai Chi, Shaolin Kids , and 12 Step 12 Week Kung Fu Bootcamp programs.
