Black Bear

I believe there might be a confusion around the name "Black Bear." The songs you've referenced such as "Notcimik-Powwow (Live)" and "Rez Road (Powwow)" sound like they could be associated with Black Bear Singers, a noted powwow drum group from the Manawan Atikamekw Nation in Quebec, Canada. This group is known for their traditional Native American powwow music which plays a crucial role in cultural and spiritual gatherings.

**Black Bear Singers Biography:**

Black Bear Singers originated from the Manawan Atikamekw community, and they are a powerhouse within the world of Native American powwow music. Established with the intention to preserve and promote their Atikamekw heritage through song and drum, Black Bear has garnered respect on both a national and international level. Their music, which includes albums like "Out of Hibernation" and "Spring Medicine," is characterized by powerful vocals and the resonating rhythms of the powwow drum that echo the heartbeat of Mother Earth.

Through their performances, the group serves as cultural ambassadors by sharing the vibrant and spiritually embedded traditions of their people. They have brought the sound of their drums to many powwow circuits, allowing for a wider appreciation of their cultural expressions. Their recent release, "Notcimik-Powwow (Live)," captures the electrifying energy of live powwow music, while "Rez Road" portrays the authenticity and vivid narratives found within their community. With an enduring commitment to their roots and a continually growing discography, Black Bear Singers remain an influential voice in the preservation and evolution of indigenous music.
