Spirit Village is a five member band of musicians who are Bahá´ís from the Okanagan-Similkameen region in the interior of British Columbia, Canada that have been playing together since 1993. Their original songs promote peace and understanding, and share, from a universal perspective, the joy and pain of the individual's spiritual journey. Their contemporary style includes touches of rock, blues, classical, folk and western, and is enjoyed by people of all ages.
