Back in the mid-2000s in Tehachapi, California, father and son duo Robin and Caleb Hairston (Chiricahua Apache) set out to create an all-Native American blues and rock band—and that’s exactly what they did. Along with drummer, Pat Mata (Northern Chumash) and bassist Jeff Cooper (Cherokee) the Blue Mountain Tribe began creating original songs focused on Native American experiences and they instantly became a hit.
The band was one of the big winners at the 20th Native American Music Awards, held November 21 at the Seneca Niagara Resort and Casino. Due to record breaking weather conditions in Western New York, Pat was the only member of the band able to attend the show. This week on Gaënö’, Pat joins me to discuss Blue Mountain Tribes recent adventures, including their brand new album, O Great Warrior! Recorded at the Legendary Cherokee Studios in Hollywood, this collection of tunes is sure to impress blues and rock fans alike. Turn it up and sing along- Enjoy!

In fact, since the time of our recording, he's already released two new singles, On My Own and Searching for Something.

This weeks Gaënö’ artist hardly needs any introduction. ShoShona Kish (Anishinaabe) and Raven Kanatakta (Mohawk, Anishinaabe) have been performing as Digging Roots for nearly 20 years. Their debut album, Seeds, was nominated for an Aboriginal Artist of the Year Award at the 2007 Juno Awards. In 2010 they brought that award home for their album, We Are. Over the years they've collaborated and shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the business and they continue to use their voices to not only highlight some of the biggest injustices Indigenous peoples continue to face but more importantly, they make music to help in the healing of deep generational wounds. This week we discuss their latest album, Zhawenim (Loving Unconditionally). The album is described as “a collection of songs that reflect on both their personal relationship with nature and our collective duty to preserve it.” Enjoy!
