From the pristine forests of the Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe, the soaring vocal melodies and swaying beat hand drums of Sullivan Squad evoke the crisp nights of the Round Dance.

The ground-breaking song-maker behind the Nammy award-winning Native American drum group Pipestone, Micheal Sullivan, Sr. leads his family in a collection of vibrant Round Dance Songs, many of them sung in the Ojibwe Anishinaabe language.

Againstthepulsatingand
hypnotic rhythms of hand drums, this Indigenous group sings songs that spin tales of broken hearts and the night sky.
