The music of SilverWolf (adelaunegvwaya) is described by their audiences as "taking a chill pill". Their two CD releases, Tali and Kamama, have been well received and distributed worldwide. Members of the group also do some solo work independent of SilverWolf. The group includes:

Frank Silverhawk: piano forte, native flute, percussion and vocals

Mike Whitewolf: guitar, native flute, keyboards, percussion, vocals

Nic Lonewolf: guitar, bass, theme composition and arrangement programming

The group formed in 2003 with Frank Silverhawk and Mike Whitewolf performing at various cultural events, concerts and powwows in the general central Florida area. Nic Lonewolf added his efforts to the group starting in 2006. Nic also has some of his solo work on OurStage. Look for his works, "Sail", "Alive" and "Coming Soon" on the Electronic and New Age/World channels.

* = In the song this was mistakenly sung as "woni" (woe-knee) which would mean "they speak", as in speaking a language, rather than "they say." Andi (awn-dee) is the correct word for "they say." At least those are the words in the Overhill dialect that we know.
