The Red and Blues Band started as a creative outlet playing gigs at Haskell Indian Nations University. Now its members have built their talents into a strong musical force with charging rock rhythms. And the band’s biting lyrics take on the injustices foisted on Indigenous peoples across the globe. Our final Music Makers of the year offer their gift to the world with their latest album “Resistance is Fuel.” The musicians will talk to us about the songs they say are a direct response to continued brutality against Indigenous people and the fight for justice.
