Al Jewer is an American flautist from Detroit, Michigan. He has worked as a record producer, audio engineer, and studio musician, but has become well known internationally for his work on the Native American flute. His early musical training was with the concert flute, and he has been performing classical music with that instrument since the early 1980s. In 1984, he established Laughing Cat Studio, and in 1994, Laughing Cat Records, to give himself control over the recording, production, and distribution of his music. This has given him the chance to work with many other musicians of the Midwestern U.S., including Blackhawk, David Storei and Roxanne Neat, Natty Nation, Adrian Belew, and Weekend Wages. Laughing Cat Records currently features artists who perform in the genres ambient, Native American, reggae, classical, and folk. Jewer has released two solo albums, River Crossing and Prairie Plain Song, as well as Two Trees and Music of the Earth. He also previously formed a duo with Christine Ibach called Cedar Wind. Cedar Wind released two albums: Feather on the Wind and Kindred Spirits.
