Mescalito Riding His White Horse

Mike Fiorito

2024 Independent Press Award Winner - Distinguished Favorite in the category of Spirituality.

Mescalito Riding His White Horse was inspired by several interviews conducted with Peter Rowan, legendary bluegrass musician, over a period of a few months during 2021. Peter never really followed the path of rock superstar - he was more interested in the alchemical process of music. In discovering this magic, I have felt myself projected across time, place, and identity and tried to put that experience into words. Except for the quoted interviews, which were transcribed as spoken, what follows is a combination of autobiography mixed with my visions and dreams. Some were imagined. All were real.

Praise for this book

Wow! It's beautiful. I'm touched that you "got" it! I also really like how you amplify the actual locations of events. I've always considered the energy of the local landscape as a deep aspect of experiences there.--Peter Rowan
You did a great job with the book! Really got to the heart of Peter's vibe.--Christopher Henry, former member of the Peter Rowan Bluegrass Band
