Nashville, TN (PRWEB) June 30, 2006 -- Native American Music Award-winning fiddlist/flutist/storyteller, Arvel Bird (Southern Paiute/Me’tis) and One Nation are making their first appearance at Brookings Summer Arts Festival July 8th and 9th. The Band will perform on Saturday at 4:00pm and Sunday at 3:00pm with substitute guitar player and Arvel's fellow NAMA award winner, Wade Fernandez.
Bird, a classically trained violinist, recently won the coveted Native American Music Award for Best Instrumental Recording for his Arvel Bird LIVE! CD. His latest solo recording, Animal Totems 2 is a finalist in the Contemporary Instrumental category at the Indian Summer Music Awards. Bird performs and records in a number of diverse genres including blues, jazz, bluegrass, Celtic, Cajun, Western swing, American roots, and contemporary Native music which gives him a continually fresh, unique sound making him one of the most in-demand Native recording artists on tour.
An experienced musician who toured the world with Glen Campbell, Loretta Lynn, Ray Price and others for several years, Bird recently has turned his musical focus to his Southern Paiute and Scottish heritages, and now focuses most of his time on writing, performing, and recording music which reflects that background.
The formation of One Nation grew out of Bird’s desire to expand his sound and includes the popular traditional Native American percussionist, John LoneEagle and equally popular guitar meister, Vlasis, both formerly of the contemporary Native group, Brule’. Together they join keyboardist Chris James, Bird’s co-writer on Animal Totems and Animal Totems 2. They are currently working on their debut CD scheduled for release on Labor Day weekend.
Bird has released ten albums and one DVD since 2001. His most recent CD releases are Ananeah (2005), Animal Totems 2 (2005), a collection of original works which reflect the essential elements of powerful animal spirits and the sequel to Animal Totems; Arvel Bird Live (2005), a compilation drawn from recent performances of Animal Totems (2002) and Big Chief Quetoos, Paiute Country Fiddle (2003), a collection of old cowboy songs and traditional fiddle tunes with Indian names such as "Cherokee Maiden," "Oklahoma Hills," "Cheyenne'" and several tunes written by Bird including the title cut, "Big Chief Quetoos."
Entrance to the event is free and open to the public. For directions to and more information on Brookings Summer Arts Festival, visit www.bsaf.com.
