Bassist, composer, and singer Mali Obomsawin (of Odanak First Nation) and her band deliver a captivating performance that feels both timeless and ancient. Exploring the dissonance of colonization and the sanctity of Indigenous lineage, Obomsawin's debut album "Sweet Tooth" offers a foray into Indigenous joy and struggle with folk songs from her community and modern sounds in the tradition of improvised music. Timely and intimate, Sweet Tooth foregrounds the distinctly Indigenous contributions to jazz music, and gives a unique opportunity for audiences to reflect on the Indigenous history of the Northeastern US.
