Cedar drums of the Tarahumara are hand crafted using real wood slats of native red cedar. Genuine cow hide is used for heavy covers and lacing. These Native drums are full of rustic charm. Made of wood slats, some spacing may occur. Some people use this size for drumming but larger sizes have better sound quality for use in pow wows or drumming groups. This drum has become very popular as rustic decor. At home in any ranch or country setting, cedar Indian drums are fabulous as southwest home furnishings. Also great with cabin or lodge styles and where Native American style is appreciated. Measures approximately 12" wide, 18" tall. Picture is representative, free Drum Beater is Included.

Description: Powwows are large social gatherings of Native Americans who follow traditional dances started centuries ago by their ancestors, and which continually evolve to include contemporary aspects. These events of drum music, dancing, singing, artistry and food, are attended by Natives and non-Natives, all of whom join in the dancing and take advantage of the opportunity to see old friends and teach the traditional ways to a younger generation. During the National Powwow, the audience see dancers in full regalia compete in several dance categories, including Men and Women's Golden Age (ages 50 and older); Men's Fancy Dance, Grass and Traditional (Northern and Southern); Women's Jingle Dress, Fancy Shawl, and Traditional (Northern and Southern); Teens (13-17); Juniors (6-12) and Tiny Tots (ages 5 and younger). The drum groups are the heart of all powwows and provide the pulsating and thunderous beats that accompany a dancer's every movement. The powwow is led by three "host drums" that showcase three distinct styles of singing (Northern, Southern and contemporary) and represent the best examples of each style. The drum contest highlights groups of 10 to 12 members each, and they sing traditional family songs that are passed down orally from one generation to the next. The National Museum of the American Indian sponsored the National Powwow in 2002, 2005, and 2007 as a way of presenting to the public the diversity and social traditions of contemporary Native cultures.

The staff at Wolf Creek Indian Village and Museum are very excited about the All Nations Green Corn Festival and Pow Wow July 16-18, 2010 at the Bland County Virginia Fairgrounds, 123 Fairground Road, Bland, VA 24315. This is the Bland County American Indian Heritage Weekend. This years festival is promising to be an excellent event!! The line up of entertainment is top notch. Our community is coming together to support this event and it just feels great this year. (You know when you plan an event, sometimes you just are not sure whether it will work? Well this year it is just wonderful, we feel it in the air that this is going to be a spectacular event.) This is the 3rd annual All Nations Green Corn Festival & Pow Wow. It was very special that the drums sounded the first year in the valleys of Bland County, probably for the first time in more than 200 years. Every year it gets better. We hope many who missed it last year will be able to attend! This year, if there is rain, the county has finished the Pavilion at the fairgrounds and we can move the activities inside of the Pavilion. We decided to update the blog first. It doesn't require a special program! Website will be updated in a day or so. Here are the performers scheduled to appear: Arvel Bird - "Lord of the Strings" Fans worldwide call legendary violinist Arvel Bird, “Lord of the Strings” for his powerful talent and artistic passion that draws audiences to his unique fiddling style. Classically trained, Bird calls on his Native American and Celtic heritage to create a repertoire that ranges from classical, new age, Celtic, and folk, to jazz, blues and fusion. Award-winning violinist, flutist and storyteller, Bird’s charismatic performances extend beyond his flawless music. An expressive storyteller, he weaves stories of Native American spirituality with haunting melodies to give vision to his music. He speaks of Native American wisdom, the sacredness of Mother Earth, the environment and the sacred totems of the animals with whom we share this planet. Bird’s messages resonate with today’s audiences often feeling overwhelmed by today’s hectic, fast-paced world. Bird’s energetic and alluring stage presence and blend of classical and foot-stomping fiddling are what make him one of the most sought-after Native American musicians on tour today. With 25 CDs and 2 DVDs under his belt, Native American Artist of the Year Arvel Bird released his latest album in January, 2010, Ride, Indian, Ride. His breakthrough album, Ride, Indian, Ride combines a hard-hitting, raw blues/jazz sound with the Native American/Celtic rhythms that have made Arvel Bird’s music so popular worldwide." We are sure Arvel will have copies for sale at the Festival but if you would like to purchase a copy on line visit Arvel Bird's Website Bird Chopper Bird Host Drum - The home of Bird Chopper is Qualla Boundary.

DescriptionThink Global: Native America is a celebration of the inspirational culture of North America's first peoples and explores the powerful influence of traditional pow wows, sun dances and ceremonial gatherings alongside the sublime flute playing of Carlos Nakai, and the unforgettable voice of the legendary Buffy Sainte-Marie. R. Carlos Nakai is the world's leading performer of the Native American flute. He has released more than thirty-five albums and as well as traditional flute playing, Nakai has also explored New Age, world-beat jazz and classical musical settings. On 'Lapule', he and Native Hawaiian slack-key guitar master Keola Beamer beautifully fuse regional US music forms. Born on a Cree reservation and adopted by a white couple, Buffy Sainte-Marie rose to fame as part of the Greenwich Village folk revival scene. As a college student in the early 1960s, Buffy became known as a writer of protest songs and love songs, many of which became huge hits, performed by the likes of Barbra Streisand, Elvis Presley and Janis Joplin. Joanne Shenandoah is an Iroquois singer and acoustic guitarist. Her music is a mixture of traditional songs and melodies with a blend of traditional and contemporary instrumentation and she has won a multitude of awards, including 'Artist of the Year' at the Native American Music Awards. Robert Tree Cody is a leading flute player who performs regularly at powwows across the USA as well as touring internationally. On 'Buffalo Prayer Song', Cody and Hovia Edwards – a young Native flute player – celebrate one of the most important animals to the Sioux. Thunder Hill has emerged as one of the greatest contemporary powwow groups and 'Contest Song' is a roaring powwow chant showcasing many of the best singers of the southern Plains. Peyote songs, accompanied by rattle and water drum, have long been a part of southwestern Native religious ceremonies and this album features Johnny Mike and Wahancanka, two highly respected peyote singers. Blackfire play both Ramones-inspired rock and roll and traditional Navajo music and 'American Indian Movement Song' celebrates the Native organisation that fought the US government over discrimination and treaty rights. Compiled by journalist and author Garth Cartwright, this album is a fascinating glimpse of Native music-making as a ceremonial form as at the dawn of the twenty-first century, Native American music reaches towards ever greater achievements.
