Death is a Business

Canzoni contro la guerra di Death is a Business

From America to Mexico to Peru travels the ever-curious music project known as Death is a Business. It’s hard to call our group a singular band since the lineup frequently changes. It can’t be helped however, as we experiment with genres from around the world.

Death is a Business was created in 2013 from an NYC college dorm room. Since then, it has grown and molded itself over the years through various lineups, including musicians and artists from around the world. The group’s musical sound incorporates various forms of cultural traditions which include instruments like the Afro-Peruvian cajon and the Andean flute.

We focus on human's relationship to the natural world, for subsistence and spiritual practice. We collaborate with musicians in different communities to tell stories inspired by and for the people. The artistic process involves relationship-building, deep listening (to those alive and dead), dream-making, and engaging in ritual and meditation. Ultimately our intention is to create beautiful powerful music by bridging cultural gaps.
