   About Tin Can Luminary
All of the music in the player above is from my latest studio release titled "Hand Made" the cd is available by mail for $5 plus $3 s+h, M.O. only

mail to:

John Hardin P.O. Box 2301, Redway, CA 95560

Ok, if you are here to check out my lamps lanterns and chandeliers made from tin cans, click on the second slide show down, the one showing pictures of lanterns and me welding. If you're interested in booking me to play electric didgeridu at your event, you can check out an on-line demo by clicking on the slide show below, the one showing me playing the didge.

click on the image above to hear what I sound like live! This takes you to my Music Forte site to hear three live recordings, they're 10-15 min. each, too long for myspace. You can also get them on my new cd called "Live Electric Didgeridu" for $5 plus $3 s+h by writing to the address above.

I decided in 1997, that as an environmentalist I could no longer justify using something so environmentally destructive as "grid" electricity, for something so frivalous as art. Since then I've construced a modest solar powered studio for my music projects and create art in an "off the grid" studio from recycled packaging (tin cans mostly)

Click on the image below if you are interested in lamps, lanterns and chandeliers made from tin cans.

I would be totally happy with such an interesting piece of art work for Irie Boogie - it makes people think and is positive all bit it in a round about sort of way...
