Have you heard the call
A whisper in the wind
When you fly
and when you fall
You can hear
the voice within
From where ever
you may stand
From whichever point
on Earth
There’s spirit in your hands
This moment is giving birth
To infinite possibilities
to love and serve mankind
Your brother
and your sister,
we’re all the same inside
Welcome,
music loving viewers, to
Enlightening Entertainment.
In a world
where we all pause
from our routine from
time to time to yearn
for peace and meaning,
five gifted musicians
from the United States
are reaching out
straight to the soul.
Their group, Here II Here,
has been garnering
acclaim nationwide
as the foremost
“mainstream-spiritual”
music band of our time.
They are shaping
an emerging genre
called “Conscious Pop”
for their sounds
that are able to move,
uplift, and expand
the listeners’ awareness
of their own Divine power.
I know that we can do it.
We can change the world.
I know that we can be it;
we can be the change
we’d like to see
It’s time for change
It’s time for change
Originally known
as “Inner Voice,”
Here II Here has performed
at the United Nations,
on the major
US television network
ABC’s program
Good Morning America
watched by
millions of viewers,
at the Miami
Dolphin Stadium,
the Agape
International Center,
and for events with some
of the world’s prominent
spiritual teachers
and best-selling authors.
Most of
their performances are
offered unconditionally.
Supreme Master
Television
had the pleasure to
meet the band members
of Here II Here
and their manager
Bryan Reeves
in Los Angeles, USA
at a stop during their
ongoing concert tour.
My name is Bryan,
and I’m the manager of
Here II Here.
My name is Alex,
and I sing.
I’m a vocalist
with the group.
My name is Ash,
I’m a vocalist
and a crazy songwriter.
My name is Jaime,
guitar and vocals.
My name is Kaz and
I play cajón, otherwise
known as the box.
My name is Edwin,
I play guitar, harmonium,
bass pedals.
First of all, how did you
come into being?
How did this group
evolve into existence?
The seed was planted
in 1998.
I put an ad in a local paper
in Miami, Florida,
to meet other singers,
other vocalists.
I wanted to
form a vocal group.
And as soon as
me and Ash connected,
we became good friends
and start singing together.
Several months later
in that same year in 1998,
we met Jaime through
another friend of mine.
And when the three of us
harmonized
for the first time, it was
something overwhelming,
something magical
has taken place.
From there, Here II Here
evolved further as
the remaining members
of the band joined in:
Edwin and Kaz,
who are brothers, and their
dedicated manager Bryan.
And the magic
that had begun
has reached
countless people since.
Fabulous!
Have you heard the call
A whisper in the wind
When you fly
and when you fall
You can hear
the voice within
Here II Here rocks, man!
This group is awesome.
I’m officially one
of their newest groupies.
My name is Lucky,
and I’m so blessed
to be a part
of this new movement
of consciousness
and evolution, music, art,
drama, and a group
called Here II Here.
These guys are great.
We love them!
For their self-titled debut
album “Here II Here,”
the band collaborated
with Grammy-winning
engineer Doc Wiley
and Grammy-winning
producer Joel Sommeillan;
as well as
Michael Jackson’s
official photographer,
Harrison Funk;
child-prodigy painter and
vegan Akiane Kramarik,
and Jacqueline Ripstein,
Artist of Peace Envoy
for the United Nations.
The album shows just
how unique the band is,
through their mastery of
a signature rhythmic blend
of tribal pop,
illuminated rock,
and soul-inspired
R&B harmonies.
Feelings come
and the feelings go,
it’s all right
Feelings come
and the feelings go,
it’s all light
It’s all right
It’s all light
It’s all right
It’s all light
Please stay tuned
to Supreme Master
Television.
We’ll be back soon with
more of Here II Here’s
enlightening music.
So good! Yeah, I feel...
I’m vibrant right now.
Oh, beautiful!
The range of this group,
and the content,
the message...
Oh, fantastic! Fantastic!
I love them!
Their last song
made me cry.

Welcome back
to our program on
the conscious music band
Here II Here.
As accomplished musicians
in their own right,
the artists of Here II Here
came together
to create wonderful
new harmonies.
But they discovered
more than just
a new commitment
in their musical careers.
They found a voice
to speak for humanity’s
rising consciousness.
Was the emphasis
of your music,
has it always been spiritual
or did that kind of evolve
as well?
Well, I think I think
that was like the seed
in the sense of what it is
we would going to do
musically.
I was in a band
for a couple of years.
It was a pop band,
world-known Latin band
called Menudo,
and that was
a really cool experience.
And I also
had some experiences
that completely shattered
my whole perspective
of that scene.
It was just very clear
that the music that was
going to come through
was going something
of different quality
and pointed to
and celebrated something
that doesn’t usually
get noticed with
our conditioned way
of looking at the world.
So many souls
have come to this planet
And blessed it
by being themselves
Yet the masses await
the messiah,
the prophet Salvation’s
on somebody else
Receive this gift
by this song
that came through
You are the One
the world needs
You are the Gandhi,
the Christ, the Lennon
You are
the Martin Luther King
I have a Dream
In one of
the early conversations,
we noticed that we had
each read a book called
“The Seven Spiritual Laws
of Success”
by Deepak Chopra.
We had
a wonderful conversation
and it was really cool
to notice that,
we are in a time
where we could
consciously use the gifts
that we have been given
by this universe
to celebrate and invite all
to partake in the nectar
of this moment
through music.
So, it was really powerful.
Jesus, Buddha,

We are the ones we
We are the ones we
We are the ones we
We are the ones we…
(All is love)
…we are looking for
When you’re singing
songs like, “ Holy,”
you’re reminding
everyone there
that they are holy. (Yes.)
For many people,
it’s almost the first time
that they will say,
“I am holy.”
You know, it really
gives them a permission
in this safe space
to claim it.
There are so many aspects
of ourselves that
we can take a look at.
And each aspect
of ourselves, you can say,
“I am holy, too.”
I am holy
I am holy
Only good comes to me
Only good comes from me
I give thanks
I give thanks
Only good comes to me
Only good comes from me
Only good comes to me
Only good comes from me
Only God comes to me
Only God
I am Holy
After learning
that their song “Holy”
had given one fan
the hope to live,
carrying her
through her darkest hour,
Here II Here
generously made the tune
free to download at
You’re touring through
a lot of yoga studios,
spiritual centered places.
(Yeah.) And one of
the interesting things
that I like about
what you’re doing is
it’s all donations,
all love gifts.
Yes. The majority,
the vast majority.
It has been just amazing
with the support
that has poured forth
and come through,
in all kinds of ways.
I think it also makes it
so much more inviting.
When we go to
these communities,
it makes it a lot easier
because they recognize
they don’t have to
either try to bring in
a certain amount of people
or try to make
a certain amount
of money or anything,
but just the openness of:
whoever is there,
whatever is made,
whatever is present,
whatever celebration
takes place is exactly
what needs to take place.
Following
the January 2010
earthquake that left
the island nation of Haiti
in devastation,
there was an immense cry
of pain and grief.
But there was also
a joining of hands
worldwide in solidarity,
comfort, and hope.
In the wake of the tragedy,
Here II Here dedicated
their special song, “Wings,”
in loving support
for the people of Haiti.
I don't ever need
to worry anymore
I know that you're okay
Like a child playing
next to the seashore
Running with the waves
Enjoy yourself in Paradise
Learn all you could learn
Share the love
that's in your eyes
And know
I'm not concerned
Because...
Every time
you leave my arms
You take my wings with you
You could never be too far
They'll always follow you
You leave my arms
and take my Wings with you
You leave my arms
and take my Wings with you
To conclude part 1 of 2
of our program featuring
Here II Here,
let’s enjoy
their original song,
“The Waking Journey”
(Walk With Me).
Have you heard the call
A whisper in the wind
When you fly
and when you fall
You can hear
the voice within
From where ever
you may stand
From whichever point
on Earth
There’s spirit in your hands
This moment is giving birth
To infinite possibilities
to love and serve mankind
Your brother
and your sister,
we’re all the same inside
Walk with me, walk with me
Though the future
may seem blurry
Walk with me, walk with me
For we’re
on the waking journey
We each have
our own mountains
We each have
our own paths
We speak
in the same language
When we cry
and when we laugh
All children are
our children
They each deserve a chance
To blossom into flowers
Reach towards the sun
and dance
For every breath’s
an invitation
to either love or fear
As Gandhi said,
“There is no way to peace,”
because peace is here
Walk with me, walk with me
Though the future
may seem blurry
Walk with me, walk with me
For we’re
on the waking journey
Walk with me, walk with me
Though the future
may seem blurry
For we’re
on the waking journey
Step by step, in this moment
I choose to live
From heart to heart,
this heart’s all
I have to give
Walk with me, walk with me
Walk with me, walk with me
Walk with me, walk with me
We’re
on the waking journey
Walk with me
Though the future
may seem blurry
We’re
on the waking journey
Though the future
may seem blurry
Walk with me, walk with me
Walk with me, walk with me
Walk with me, walk with me
Walk with me, walk with me
Walk with me, walk with me
Walk with me, walk with me

Namaste and welcome
to the second part
of our program on
the American “Conscious
Pop Music Group”
Here II Here.
Formerly known
as “Inner Voice,”
the band has performed
all around the United States,
from the United Nations
in New York and the
Miami Dolphin Stadium,
to many yoga studios
and spiritual centers,
and was featured on the
major television network
ABC’s popular program,
Good Morning America
with a viewership
of millions.
With a unique sound that
harmonizes the members’
talent and experience
across various styles,
the music of Here II Here
appeals to
a broad audience.
But what
mesmerizes listeners
is their unique, powerful,
uplifting spirituality.
They are “Conscious
Music Makers.”
And in their own
creative words,
Here II Here’s mission is
to “serve as
the soundtrack for
planetary awakening.”
If a Christian doesn’t ask
what would Jesus do
Then I don’t know
what a Christian is
If a Buddhist doesn’t ask
what would Buddha do
Then I don’t know
what a Buddhist is
And if a Muslim
doesn’t ask
what would Mohammed do
Then I don’t know
what Islam is
And if a Human Being
doesn’t question his actions
I don’t know
what a human being is
Oh Earthlings, Earthlings
our perceptions
gone astray
We think
we own the Earth and
we treat her like a slave
Oh Earthlings, Earthlings
let’s reevaluate
Our role in this experience
and choose
to change our ways
Oh Earthlings, Earthlings
You said before
in an interview
that you know
that Here II Here
can change the world
because it has
changed yourselves.
Can you give us
some examples of
how that has come about?
I think that was Jaime’s.
I would assume most of us –
very egocentric,
lost in my own
little world of thoughts,
and to this day,
which distracts me
a lot of the time
and it takes me away
from being grounded
in this moment.
Through the music,
through our words, which
are literally mantras,
it has allowed me
to really deepen
and just get more
in touch with myself.
And so if it’s done it for me,
I have no doubt that
it can do it for anybody
out there in the planet.
Planets are just plankton
Floating in a sea of
Omni-present mystery
Those who claim to know it
Rarely ever show it
They are just
as lost as you and me
So, your songs, how
do they come into being?
Do you
write them together?
When we first got together,
it was mainly
we would get together
and write together.
And then we still do that,
but I guess kind of like
the main form right now is
I’ll receive –
I like calling myself
a secretary to the Divine,
because I start, I either
wake up with either
a lyrics and a melody
and an essence and
I just got to jot it down,
“Okay this, this,
okay okay okay.”
And then sometimes I’ll
receive an essence per se,
and that essence will just
sit with me for a week,
and it’s kind of like oh,
I love this essence, I know
that something’s coming,
something’s coming.
And then I’ll experience
the melody and lyrics.
I’m learning to forget,
forget I ever saw your face
To forget, to forget
I ever heard your name
To forget, the soul
that’s in your eyes
So it will always
be the first time
Here II Here are currently
on their second tour
through the United States.
Where have you been
so far?
And what are some of
the highlights of the tour
that you’ve been on so far?
We’ve been on the road
for about five weeks now
and it’s been going great.
We had a great concert
at the World Beat Center,
(San Diego)
where was that at?
San Diego.
We performed in cities
like Albuquerque and
Sedona and Dallas, and...
Oklahoma City. (Phoenix.)
We went to
the Grand Canyon also.
We did an a cappella piece
at the Grand Canyon.
(Right on the cliff.)
Right on the cliff.
What if someday
we recognize
that we are all the same
And that
the source of everything
is beyond any name
What if miracles
were too close
for our eyes too see
And this that’s happening
right now
is just possibility
What if you are dreaming
you’re asleep
when you’re awake
What if God said
“thank you” back –
what would you say
In that moment we decided
we’re here
and we have our iPhones,
it’s amazing,
with that technology, we
were able to capture us
singing on the a cappella,
just with this,
and the image
and the sound quality
sounds really decent.
When we return, we
will see Here II Here’s
performance
at the Red Rocks
in Sedona, Arizona, USA
and other elevating songs.
Please stay tuned
to Supreme Master
Television.
When I first heard
Here II Here, I knew that
they had the message that
the world needs to hear.
This has been fantastic,
what a day!
A great vibration,
and the voices,
they mix up the sound.
It was...
Awesome!
That’s the only word
I can describe it with.
Fantastic.
Everybody had fun,
everybody.
You must experience
Here II Here!
Welcome back
to our program featuring
the unique and gifted
conscious music band
Here II Here.
Who would’ve thought
out of all of the stars
in this desert sky
I would behold
such a wondrous oasis
of six billion I’s
Who would’ve thought
the so-called
dominant species
Would take paradise
for granted
Love is a word
humans use all the time
Though I feel that
they don’t understand it
I’m an alien
who’s just arrived here
on this planet
of green brown and blue
I’m an alien
amazed at where
my craft has landed
I’ve come in search of you
I’m an alien
Here II Here has received
the highest accolades
from spiritual teachers,
fellow musicians and
audiences everywhere.
Spiritual teacher Gangaji
said about them,
“Here II Here bursts
my heart more open
each time I hear them.”
And Neale Donald Walsch,
author of
the bestselling book series,
“Conversations with God,”
praised the group as well,
stating,
“Here II Here provides
not simply music,
but a total experience
that expands the mind,
opens the heart
and touches the soul.
I feel gifted
by having heard them.”
Also, another highlight:
After every show,
we get to meet
the most amazing people,
so hallo to everyone that
we got a chance to meet
if you’re watch this.
And it’s just so delicious.
Hearts are just
completely open
and there’s just
this pouring of gratitude
and appreciation
and recognition.
So it’s really been delicious.
It’s definitely hard
to point one particular
experience out, because
it’s the whole journey,
it’s just every moment;
just such an
incredible opportunity to
celebrate the sharing and
the community gathering.
As we start to perform,
little by little, you can
start to see the openness,
the melting of the walls
start to happen.
And there’s just
something powerful,
at one point you can
literally just feel that
their heart’s opening.
If we’re appearing
in your consciousness
It’s to simply say yes
If we’re appearing
in your consciousness
It’s to simply say yes.
"I am God, all is one,
the totality of existence"
Pales in comparison
to what’s never been said
"I feel so good,
I feel so free,
I feel so connected"
Pales in comparison
to what cannot be felt
YES, YES, YES
YES, YES, YES
It has been mentioned
that you worked with
a lot of spiritual teachers.
Can you tell us about some
of these spiritual teachers
and what impact
they have had on you?
One of the first ones
that comes to me
is a woman
named Gangaji, and I
like to call her “My Yes”
or the “Big Yes.”
For me,
it was an important part
of this opening, to have
another human being,
an actual human being
appearing in your
awareness and saying,
“Yes! Yes, yes, yes,
this is so, this is here,
this is what is.”
she’s a ‘Yes’ and
we performed with her
a couple of times.
She’s been
a big impact on…
Yes, she was definitely
one of the first ones.
So, is that the source
of your song, “Yes”?
Yeah, that was
the inspiration for it, yeah.
(Right.) That confirmation.
A sacred place,
a holy stone,
to raise my vibration
Pales in comparison
to what they appear in
A silly song
with silly words
eating your attention
Pales in comparison
to what cannot be sung
YES, YES, YES
YES, YES, YES
Yeah
No
Yeah
No
And then
we’ve worked with,
I mean, there’s
so many wonderful beings
in this planet.
We worked
with Byron Katie,
who we adore
her way of slicing, through
all conditioned thinking
and stressful thoughts.
Adyashanti.
Adyashanti,
who is wonderful!
We worked with Kim Eng,
who is Eckhart Tolle’s
life partner, who’s
just the sweetest being.
We also worked with
Neale Donald Walsch,
for example,
and who else…
Performed at Agape with
Michael Beckwith also.
Shakti Gawain,
we’ve sung a song
with Shakti Gawain.
Dr. John Gray,
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar,
with “The Art of Living.”
Yeah,
we’ve had the privilege
of being in the presence
of all these beings
that are just lovely.
(The Oracle.)
The Oracle of Tibet,
the Dalai Lama’s
spiritual advisor,
we did a tour with him,
and that was a lot of fun
and powerful.
Yes I know
the road’s been long and
the road’s been weary
And you may have lost
and then gained again
And now
you’re sitting here
so you can hear me
Congratulate you for
stepping out into the rain
‘Cause sometimes
you just don’t know
If the sun’s gonna shine
But a vision fed your fire
Time after time
Your dreams
brought you here
Where will they take you
tomorrow
You believed
in spite of fear
You stayed strong,
had faith and followed
No nothing
can hold you back
from your truth
Now it’s up to you
and only you to choose
To the inspired
and inspiring members
of Here II Here,
we join your fans
in applause and gratitude
for your amazing music.
Sending best wishes
to you in your
light-filled endeavors,
may our shared wish
for an awakened
and peaceful planet
manifest soon!
To our viewers,
thank you for
your company today on
Enlightening Entertainment.
Coming up next is
Words of Wisdom,
after Noteworthy News,
here on
Supreme Master Television.
May your spirit shine
with all Heaven’s
goodness and grace.
