The Guam Music Guild is a non-profit organization dedicated to the presentation and promotion of original work by local artists. For our first project we offer this collection of strong performances by a talented group of young songwriters. “Marianas Homegrown” embraces both English and Chamorro as it reflects and expresses aspects of our lives here on Guam. Enjoy…!
