Nahko

Spanning singer-songwriter Nahko's formative years travelling through the landscapes of Alaska, Hawaii, and Louisiana, My Name Is Bear is a collection of deeply personal songs that tell the tales of an artistic awakening, and his most revealing work yet.

New album from Nahko, his first solo album under his name. Nahko has built a rabid grass-roots fan base performing with his band Medicine for the People. Previous album HOKA has scanned 21k RTD (8k CD's and 2k LP's). First single "Dragonfly" will be released on 9/11, with a video to follow. US tour will run Oct 18th - Nov 12th.

It's been more than 20 years since Ben Ellman, Robert Mercurio, Stanton Moore, Jeff Raines and Rich Vogel began exploring the seemingly limitless musical possibilities born out of their work together as Galactic. Since then, the seminal New Orleans band has consistently pushed artistic boundaries on the road and in the studio, approaching their music with open ears and drawing inspiration as much from the sounds bubbling up from their city's streets as they do from each other. Already Ready Already features a diverse array of musical guests and embodies the New Orleans funk that the band has grown in since its inception.
