Joanne Shenandoah was an Iroquois singer, composer, multi-instrumentalist and climate change activist. She grew up on the Oneida Reservation near Oneida, New York and was given the name Tekaliwhakwah, which translates as "she sings." Her artistry employed a mixture of traditional songs and melodies with a blend of instrumentations. Her work included purely vocal recordings in the Iroquois tongue, contemporary country/folk music with a Native American focus, meditative soundscapes, ambient dance music, as well as many collaborative efforts.
These are photos from concerts where Joanne Shenandoah played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
