Jerod Impichchaachaaha Tate
My friends, I am very excited to tell you that my very good friend, Jerod Impichchaachaaha Tate, has a website ready and waiting for your enlightened eyes and ears. CLICK HERE to visit his website now.
Jerod is Native American -- a citizen of the Chickasaw Nation. His musical training is steeped in classical music, and he is a very accomplished concert pianist. But his heart and his convictions are strongly tied to his American Indian heritage, and he has researched a great deal into the musical traditions of many American Indian tribes. His music melds these two spheres of creativity; historical, mythological, socio-political, and musical themes taken from the American Indian tradition, and structure, orchestration, and notation techniques taken from the Western classical tradition. His voice is honest, unique, and sublimely expressive, and his work is some of the best examples of "nobrow" music. I'm very honored to be able to share his work with you.
As a small side note, you can hear me playing guitar in the short excerpt from his piece for classical guitar and percussion, called "Inchokkillissa", which means "Worth of the Soul"...
