Power Songs from Past Participants
Read the stories and hear the songs from past Power Song collaborators.
Jamin
Grandfather, Father, Farmer, Medicine man
This track features the water drum, peyote shaker and vocals of Jamin. This was his first time in a music studio and it was a totally wild experience "song-ifying" his Native American-inspired song. "Sacred Love Fireplace" is a song of resistance and solidarity. Jamin sings the line seven times in the song, which refers to a fire that was kept burning continuously for an entire year by the Klammath Tribal people as loggers were attempting to acquire it.
The song was created on the 2024 Men's Work and Music weekend in Central Oregon.
Songwriter: Jamin; Production: Beloveski; Guitar: Ky Burt; Sax: Adam Tutor; Keys: Chris Crooks
Rachel Forsyth
Grandmother and artist
This original song was created by Rachel Forsyth and Andrew Belinsky in 2017 over the course of a 4-hour recording session in a private home in Solana Beach, CA. Rachel, age 72, always held a deep desire to record original music the would outlive her and that her grandchildren could always remember her by. "Kiss the Ground" is just that.
For the record, Rachel had no prior experience with vocal recording or song-writing. The two of them burned some sage, did some yoga and started making sounds. This is a true testimony to the magic power of creating a safe expression sanctuary, creating an intention, and following your heart.
This was a one-take recording (unmixed and unmastered).
Songwriter: Rachel Forsyth; Production: Beloveski
Erin
Event producer and Artist
"Dive In" was Erin's first ever fully produced track. This was a truly collaborative creation--the vocals and the beat came through simultaneously during a 4-hour studio session in San Diego, CA in 2014
This was a healing an especially healing experience for her since she had been mistreated by a man in a music studio in the past.
This was a one-take recording. (unmixed and unmastered).
Songwriting: Elan; Production: Beloveski
Devra Gregory
Healer and event producer
It had been over 40 years (since high school) that Dev had played her flute. It took courage to show up to the studio with it and to play it--but the fingering and blowing came right back to her! Not only did she have a healing experience through remembering her inherent creativity, but she also made some amazing sounds--sounds that Andrew even ended up using in his debut Beloveski EP release!
The first sound you hear in this song is her flute, run through some effects. This song is mixed by Jose Dabdoub and mastered by Big Rock Studios.
Songwriting + Production: Beloveski
Tommy Friedman
husband, Father and entrepreneur
On his bachelor weekend, Tommy had the wild idea to create a song for his bride-to-be Lindsey to sing her her at the wedding. Fortunate for him, his best man was also a music producer. Not only did they create a fun, upbeat song, but after a couple rehearsals, the groomsmen became the band. Watch in this video how the whole room sings together!
"This was a highlight of our wedding for sure. Family members still bring it up to this day!"
Jordan Belinsky
Father and Tennis coach
Jordan has recorded numerous tracks over the past 20 years, and he will tell you himself that this one is his favorite. "Where I'm From" was a true collaborative effort. In fact, when Jordan wasn't able get his own chorus fully dialed in, he invited Andrew (his cousin) to sing on the chorus, which ended up turning out great. Andrew arranged, structured and edited the vocals on this track--quite a feat when you listen in.

Micaela
Chef and musician
Micaela had been writing poetry and singing by herself since she was a little girl. When her boyfriend at the time purchased her a Power Song Process for her birthday, she was both over-the-moon and scared to death.
Completing and recording her first complete song has been hugely transformational for her. She has now performed it live multiple times and continues to show it to her family and friends everywhere she goes. She now claims "musician" as part of her identity.

Elizabeth Tobias
Artists and ARt therapist
This soundtrack piece that was co-created with artist Elizabeth Tobias for her Death Gab for Los Angeles Art Association installation. Together, Elizabeth and Andrew found the sonic elements and eerie voices that were apart of this unusual and stunning exhibition.
This was Elizabeth's first time creating a track in a music studio.

DTO
Music producer and teacher
This meditation song by DTO was remixed by Andrew in 2017.
A note from DTO, the original artist of Spirit: "Andrew has musicianship as well as production skills AS WELL AS a deep seated spiritual practice. He is a space for wonderful ideas to emerge."
"In this remix, Andrew helped bring forward new life to the original song. His talent to bring in percussion and electronic beats made the song danceable and inspiring. It was a breakthrough for me as an artist to work with Andrew, a genius in motion. I highly recommend working with Andrew on any level of mentorship: coaching and music."
Songwriting + Production: DTO and Beloveski
Daryn Belinsky
entrepreneur and muse
From Daryn: "Before working with Andrew, I had always been the kind of musician who could never write a whole song. I’d come up with a few lines and a chord progression here and there, write it down somewhere, write it off as not being any good, and quickly forget about it.
"I only have 2 completed original songs and Andrew is the one who coaxed them out of me. Andrew helped me realize that the process of song-writing is not as daunting as I had previously thought. It’s about finding patterns in the music and stringing them together. Andrew is a proficient producer, not to mention a multi-instrumentalist who is able to flesh out an organized musical landscape based off of a simple jam session."
