SUMMARY:Staged Reading of “We Were There When Jazz Was Invented” by U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo\, Featuring Jazz Trumpeter Delbert Anderson
DESCRIPTION:This headlining event of the 2025 Native American Arts Festival Week is an intimate staged reading of Joy Harjo’s latest play\, “We Were There When Jazz Was Invented\,” with the musical accompaniment of Diné Trumpeter\, Delbert Anderson. This is the very first time the two renowned Jazz Musicians will hit the stage together. \nJoy Harjo is an internationally renowned performer and writer of the Muscogee Nation. She served three terms as the 23rd Poet Laureate of the United States from 2019-2022 and is winner of the Poetry Society of America’s 2024 Frost Medal\, Yale’s 2023 Bollingen Prize for American Poetry\, and was recently honored with a National Humanities Medal. \nDelbert Anderson\, a Diné jazz trumpet artist\, composer\, and educator\, stands at the forefront of a vibrant Native American jazz scene. His work\, deeply rooted in his Diné heritage\, seamlessly integrates Navajo “spinning songs” of love\, healing\, and courtship with jazz and funk\, thus marking him as a community-minded Indigenous individualist.

SUMMARY:Mali Obomsawin: Sweet Tooth
DESCRIPTION:Bassist\, singer\, and bandleader Mali Obomsawin performs music from their debut album Sweet Tooth\, a project that shines a light on the Indigenous history of jazz and expresses the vitality and contemporary nature of Indigenous culture. \nAn Abenaki from Odanak First Nation\, Obomsawin studied with the renowned cornetist and composer Taylor Ho Bynam at Dartmouth\, an institution originally founded in the 18th century to educate the Wabanaki people\, and they discovered the archived and unheard field recordings of their Odanak ancestors in storage – recordings that have been integrated into Sweet Tooth. \n\n\nThe Out of Your Head Records release is based around the concepts of adaptation and innovation in modernity\, a project both personal and universal to the stories of the Indiginous populations of the U.S. and Canada. This is a contemporary music\, and is not an expression of the bridging of worlds\, but shows how jazz and Indiginous culture is inextricably linked from the time that colonizers and militaries brought brass band instruments to Native lands. \nThrough their artistry\, Mali Obomsawin lifts their ancestral history of resistance and adaptation\, and carries on a proud tradition of Native jazz artists including Don Cherry\, Mildred Bailey\, Oscar Pettiford\, and many others.

SUMMARY:California Native Vote Project’s Skoden Indigenous Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:A Day of Great Music and Great Reasons to Vote  \nMonterey Park\, CA – October 21\, 2024 \nThe California Native Vote Project (CNVP) is sponsoring the first of what it hopes will be an annual event\, the Skoden Indigenous Music Festival October 26 from 3 – 8 pm October 26 at Barnes Park Amphitheater in Monterey Park. Doors open at 2. \nTranslated\, the definition of “skoden” is Native slang “let’s go then” (used frequently on the FX series “Reservation Dogs”) In the context of the festival\, it serves as a powerful call to action  – both for the music\, and as motivation to to get out the Native vote. \nThe family-friendly event is free and open to the public\, and will feature food trucks (and free food – “Indian” tacos made from fry bread for the first 200 attendees)\, as well as Native vendors and information booths\, to help raise awareness and answer questions about the upcoming election and how it impacts Southern California Native communities. A ballot drop box is on site at Barnes Park. \n“Not everybody goes to a pow wow\, not everybody goes to a cultural event\,” says festival organizer Rene Williams\, CNVP’s Director of Strategic Initiatives. “Being able to connect with more community members in different ways is really important and it’s also great to celebrate our community in a different way. Bring a blanket and a ballot.”. \nComedian Krazy Kasey AKA Rezzalicious AKA Kasey Nicholson (A’aa’nii’nin\, White Clay Nation) will emcee the event features an eclectic lineup of Native artists\, from blues and rock guitarists to poetry and hip hop to soulful singer-songwriters and alternative rock. \nPerformers include: \n• Levi Platero Band (Navajo Nation)\n• Bobby Sanchez (Peruvian)\n• Sage Bond (Diné/Apache)\n• Stella Standingbear (Lakota)\n• Yelawolf (Cherokee)\n• One Way Sky
