Native American Audio Project, Library of Congress
Native American Audio Project Research Guide Preface “Every soul has a distinct song.” – Joy Harjo, Crazy Brave: A Memoir The Native American Audio Project aims to highlight the history of commercially recorded Indigenous music within the United States and surrounding areas. Native American communities have always used music as a way to express both individual and tribal identity; furthermore, many artists use their music and lyrics to critically engage with the stereotypes of Native American cultures and assert their own community values and traditions. Collective singing of tribal songs during powwows and potlatches takes place alongside the creation of new music as musicians strengthen and adapt traditional practices to reflect their contemporary experience. Using their knowledge of traditional styles, Native musicians continue to shape the foundation of popular music, ranging from jazz to heavy metal. The Library’s holdings include musicians across all geographic regions and includes a distinction for powwow music, which is often performed by intertribal singing groups. The Library holds over 400 recordings of contemporary Native artists and powwow groups from as early as the 1940s. Spanning multiple genres, the collection highlights around 140 record labels, many of which began as small family operations that travelled to homes or community powwows to record singers. Despite these humble beginnings, record companies like Canyon Records and Silverwave Records have achieved international recognition with artists such as R. Carlos Nakai, a Ute/Diné flautist who is popular in both European and American markets. These labels continue to produce music for a diverse audience of Native and non-Native listeners. This guide follows the regional format of the Encyclopaedia of Native American Music of North America set forth by Elaine Keillor, Timothy Archambault and John M.H.
