“This is experimental art… We're showing people experimental art from the Eastern Algonquin side of the world.” - Daryl Black Eagle Jamieson Medicine Singers formed as a collaborative offshoot of the Eastern Medicine Singers, an Eastern Algonquin powwow group that performs traditional and contemporary American Indian music. The project was born from a spontaneous collaboration between guitarist Yonatan Gat and the Eastern Medicine Singers at SXSW 2017. Gat’s swirling psychedelic guitar lines wrapped naturally around the group’s pulsating chants and rhythms. With their debut album, Medicine Singers have created a spellbinding musical experience. A daring and ambitious record that celebrates tradition, while boldly breaking away from its restrictions. Bridging multiple dimensions of sound and featuring a remarkable cast of guest artists, including production mastermind Ryan Olson, ambient music pioneer Laraaji, “no wave” icon Ikue Mori, and jaimie branch, a rising star in the world of improvised music.
