This is the story of A Tribe Called Red; to electronica and hip hop their music is wed.

Formed in 2008, they’ve travelled to global destinations, telling stories of devastation, of traditions unravelled by colonization.

Despite hypnotic beats their message doesn’t sleep; their strong words call out injustices deep,

Awakening nations to past indignations with sweet drums and ululations of traditional First Nations.

But there’s no finger pointing, there’s no blame; just a gathering together under one loving name.

While the players change in this tight DJ collective, love and hope always form their basic directive.

No wonder their third album We are the Halluci Nation was the number one at all CBC locations!

They were named Top 10 in the Washington Post, and on two Polaris longlists, they’re better than most.

They scored a Juno — breakthrough group of the year — and they will Idle No More so have no fear.

Their drums and chants will make you dance in celebration while their words inspire you with love and determination.

Yes, this is the story of A Tribe Called Red, their music moves your heart and your feet and your head.
