NYC: INDIGENOUS FEATURING MATO NANJI AT IRIDIUM

IRIDIUM JAZZ CLUB (1650 Broadway, NYC - 212-582-2121)presents Indigenous featuring Mato Nanji on Monday, May 20th with shows at 8:00 & 10:00 pm. Mato Nanji, the guitarist, singer, and songwriter of Indigenous, formed the band with his two brothers and sister back in the late '90s. They released their much-talked about debut, Things We Do, in 1998. While the band's growling electric blues was totally legit and truly exciting, the little family band from the Nakota Tribe of South Dakota never expected the incredible, widespread reception they got from the blues and rock communities. Then, after two more studio albums and a live set, Indigenous unexpectedly broke up. Following the split, each of Mato's siblings, with the exception of bassist Pte who played on the new disc, had the opportunity to explore their own musical potential outside the already defined stylistic approach of the band. Despite the changes, Mato is forging his own way as the face of Indigenous, still and again one of blues-rock's most exciting talents. There is $25 cover plus a $15 food/drink minimum.
