Randy Motz obtained his trail name of "Windtalker" on his 2006 thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail, completing it with Georgia Harris "Mom". Together, they travel the world hiking, backpacking, playing music, taking photos, and sharing joy through education, entertainment, and inspiration. "Dream it! Plan it! Live it!"
Windtalker Music was founded by Randy "Windtalker" Motz who sadly passed away in 2026. For much of his life Randy “Windtalker” Motz studied Native cultures, history, legends, and the First Peoples’ sacred connection with the earth and considered himself Native in spirit. His journey with the Native American flute began in 2000, after being inspired by the playing of Robert Mirabal from the Taos Pueblo. He gave over 500 live performances and recorded six successful Native American flute CDs. “Hózhó – Walking in Beauty,” was nominated for “Best Native American Flute CD of 2016” by One World Music Radio (OWMR) and remained on their Top 100 Chart for over six months. The "Awakening" album was voted #2 "Best Flute CD of 2020" and the album "Wind, Water, and Stone" won the "Best Flute Album of 2022" from OWMR. If you are looking for relaxing music or a unique and breathtaking multi-media experience, you have come to the right place.

“The Windtalker Experience" was an inspirational multimedia show set to the breathtaking and haunting sounds of Native American flute. “Windtalker’s” distinctive style of contemporary flute blended with lush orchestration and Native percussion, weaving a soothing musical tapestry. In addition to performing traditional Native American style flute compositions from his popular CDs, he also performed jazz, blues, and unique versions of classic rock songs.
These beautiful and creative compositions serve as a captivating soundtrack for a backdrop of awe-inspiring photos taken by Georgia L Harris. The audience takes a soothing, sometimes playful, and always entertaining journey to breathtaking and iconic locations throughout the U.S. and places like Canada, the U.K., New Zealand, and most recently Iceland. Each performance was interspersed with stories, legends, and historical and cultural facts about Native Americans, making for a very memorable event.
