About Nicholas Breeze Wood

Nicholas Breeze Wood is a musician, artist, writer, shamanic practitioner and Tibetan Buddhist (Nyingmapa).

As a musician, Nicholas is inspired by music that seems to come somehow - in someway - from 'another world', often with a slight feel of trance.

He has a great interest in early medieval music, especially the music made between the 11th and 13th centuries, such as the troubadours from the South of France and the Cantigas de Santa Maria from medieval Spain. He tries to combine some of the feel for this sound world into his music, using medieval instruments and sometimes medieval, as well as Arabic, Balkan and North African melodies and musical forms.

He is a self confessed 'stringophile' - collecting plucked stringed instruments of the world and has an extensive collection of them. He also has modern copies of many medieval musical instruments.

He records in his own studio in a small valley in Pembrokeshire in West Wales, where he lives, and rarely performs, although in the past he has been an occasional member of the medieval group Misericordia, was a member of the Freedonia State Orchestra, and has played informally with members of the medieval group Sinfonye on several occasions.

He is the publisher and editor of Sacred Hoop Magazine, a leading international magazine about shamanism published since 1993, and a well known maker of ceremonial craftwork such as shamanic frame drums, beaded feather fans and other ritual shamanic objects.

He runs an on-line gallery of original antique shamanic and Tibetan Buddhist ritual objects called 3Worlds, which is also home to the world's leading podcast on the subject of shamanism. He is the author of 'Voices from the Earth' and 'The Book of the Shaman'.

In his spare time he tries to remember to eat and sometimes even sleep - but mostly he creates (art, a mess, a nuisance, a noise, an eyesore and many other things....)
