: Do you have his new CD? If so, how is it?
Ayesha,
no, I don't have his CD. Actually, I have only become aware of it the other day. I've tried to listen to some of the sound files, but didn't get that "media player" to work. Maybe I'll look it up at the store next time.
I haven't been to any life music event in a long time, but I hope to go to a concert by Clan/Destine this Friday. Have you heard of them? Probably not. Last year, a friend and I stumbled into a concert next to the reservation casino by accident, and it turned out to be really good, various groups and singers from rock to country and chicken scratch (Spanish language songs of the Pima). Clan/Destine was one of the local rock groups, and they mixed rock and traditional sounds really well. One member of the group is a hoop dancer and he includes his dancing into their performance too. I've found their website via the First Nations Musicians Website (the linkpage here at the Mohican Site lists it) and, surprise, they are back for a concert of their own and just around the corner!
Have a good night!
Petra
