Red Earth has released 3 albums, When Worlds Collide, Live at the Electric 49, and Zia Soul. Red Earth is a 6-man musical tag team executing pile-drivers of musical fortitude from Indian Country to the nation at large. Red Earth has graciously received two Native American Music Awards, and has shared the stage with groups ranging from Ozomatli to Motown's Funk Brothers.
Red Earth's members have been taking an extended hiatus since 2006, exploring other projects and interests. So the Electric 49 has also been absent from the Gathering of Nations' weekend activities the last couple of years.
Stay posted for news about Gathering 2010... we may have something special in store... oh la la.
