Indigenous

The Native American blues-rock group Indigenous consists of three brothers, Mato Nanji (vocals and guitar), Pte (bass), and Horse (percussion), and their sister, Wanbdi (drums, vocals). The Nakota Nation members grew up on South Dakota's Yankton Indian Reservation and were inspired by their father, Greg Zephier, who had been a musician in the '60s and '70s and later became a spokesperson for Native American rights. The group released its 1998 debut album, Things We Do, on Pachyderm Records; the video for the title track was directed by Chris Eyre, who also directed the award-winning Native American film Smoke Signals. The group released the Blues This Morning EP and Live at Pachyderm Studios in 1999, while winning acclaim from critics and artists like Bonnie Raitt, the Indigo Girls, and Jackson Browne. The Circle followed in 2000. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi

correction 3 brothers and their sister! I love them too wish they would come to Louisiana or I could go see them somewhere.LO V E THIS MUSIC.
5/13/2013 - Going to see them this Friday at a little roadhouse in New Jersey( Stanhope House). I can't wait! Saw them three years ago in PA. I thought my chest was gonna implode ! These guys make a helluva a lotta sound for just three brothers...
I love this family's music!
Very, very nice. Enjoyable and addictive sound.
Great group in Concert! Seen 5 times definitely worth it.

Been listening and buying their cd's for 13 years. the latest one featuring Mato is better than ever. they are just getting better.....o n e of the best in my opinion. love johnny lang (used to) till he got his religion into his music and he just doesn't jump/bump anymore like he use to. no good new stuff from him. oh well, give jimmy d lane a listen, he'll blow your socks off too! just sayin.....

Wocobble... maybe a bad nite for Jonny Lang, but DAMN. I LOVE Jonny. I went to the show to see him! But Mato just smoked him. From their 1st note to their last Indigenous was just that badass. Anybody who saw that show at Hampton Beach casino years ago would agree. Sorry :(

More Indigenous please. Variety by them! Many here in South Dakota haven't heard of them. Including natives. Native friend at work is one. She listens now.
Really enjoy this band - they remind me of early Big Head Todd and the Monsters - love it!

Bio is a little off...Horse is Wambdi, Pte and Mato's cousin. They have gone through many line up changes of late with Mato carring on the name Indigenous. Saw the family band at least 12 times and with others 2 twice...Mato is amazing live!

Nee Ooks Ky I Ya---- Pahasapa.... . .
saw them in boston at the paradise with eric gales opening for them...aweso m e show
They're here in Denver at a small club next week. $20, can't beat it. Seen them twice before. Mato is extremely talented, and I like him best of any of Jimi/SRV imitators or clones. Long live the Lakota!
seen these guys on the same tour with Johnny Lang in 98 or 99 outdoors Clio Michigan. Great show outdoors under the stars. Please play more.

Seen these guys open for Johnny Lang at the Coronado Theater in Rockford Ill. i want to say 1998? maybe 1999. Took a limo. It was a concert I will never forget!! The Coronado is like a mini Carnigie Hall!! I have been to a lot of blues fests ect. It was a really good show.
