Often in conversations when the question is posed “what kind of music do you like?” people exclaim “everything but country!”. Occasionally after Panda shows people come up to us and say “i don’t like reggae but I love you guys”. Both statements always strike us as strange, but we welcome the conversation. Ditch the genre talk. In this world there is GOOD music and BAD music. We are trying to make the GOOD kind. Of course it’s all subjective, but we do our damnedest to try to make music that will make you feel great and amplify the goodness that is abundant in life. Country and Reggae music are both essentially folk music. The crossovers are endless. In this huge sea of sound there is a variety of GOOD and BAD offerings, as there is in any collection of works you could assign a value of quality to. This new record of ours is also folk music, and this time we are the folks behind it. We appreciate the power of acoustic instruments. They have greatly inspired us in so many different forms and expressions of music that we have been blessed to have around in our lives. We love all sorts of styles but we like to think it all falls under the category of GOOD music. We have many influences and part of the Panda is revealing those to you in our own form. Enjoy this music. Spread it and feed off of it. There is so much more to come. Thank you for letting us be ourselves. RESPECT

Here’s the official VIDEO for “Kids In The Square”

dedicated to the right and ability to obtain fresh clean vegetables, live in fairness and equality, and not be played as pawns in a game of greed, inhumanity, and insanity.

They played snippets of “Love You More” in the background, then at the end (starting around 10:50) they give us a nice plug! Hear it Stream Audio | Download Audio
