Cloud Cult's field of dreams | Vita.mn

The Minowas are longtime organic farmers. They moved south to enjoy a few more weeks of growing time next season. They also sought out an ideal plot of land to house the Earthology Institute, a long-imagined offshoot to the band’s Earthology Records and nonprofit arm.

Craig’s idea is to build cabins in the woods and host seminars on organic farming, recycling, wind turbines, etc. If it sounds like the Cloud Cult leader is blowing smoke, remember: This group ran its van on bio-fuel and participated in the NativeEnergy offset program back when most bands didn’t know a carbon footprint from a carburetor.

I’m very glad that Cloud Cult decided to keep recording music. I just wish they would play more often. I’m still not sure how I missed seeing them play when they first started, and I’ve still only seen them once.
