Tiokasin Ghosthorse & Matou, with Soni Moreno & Ataahua Papa

The Lakota cedar flute is an ancient instrument intended to convey emotions and to resemble the human voice. Tonight Tiokasin Ghosthorse, one of the great exponents of this instrument, will play its mesmerizing melodies and will be performing with Matou, a truly original and exquisite trio of indigenous (Lakota, Mauri and Apache/Mayan) musicians. Matou is a fusion of Native American flute music with the powerful traditional chants of the Mauri; acoustic guitar mixes with beautiful vocal harmonies; and funk beats that combine Native American rattles and drum. These musicians are truly a dynamic, vibrant, and accomplished combination of artists, who can’t be missed.
