Indigenous - Broken Lands

Guitar virtuoso/singer/songwriter Mato Nanji returns as Indigenous with this new album which articulates an intensely personal record that pays tribute to Mato's Native American heritage. Raised as a member of the Nakota Sioux Nation on the Yankton Indian Reservation in South Dakota, Mato first came to musical prominence when he formed Indigenous with his brother, sister and cousin. In 1998, they released their debut, 'Things We Do', which received wide, mass reception and included the Top 10 smash hit Now That You're Gone and the Top 20 rock singles Things We Do and Got To Tell You. After three successful albums, the siblings went their separate ways, and Mato forged ahead as the face of Indigenous releasing his Vanguard debut, 'Chasing The Sun'.That album's fiery blues prowess solidified Mato as one of bluesrock's most exciting talents. This new release marks an augmentation of the Blues into Roots, World and Americana territories, by incorporating native percussion, slide, lap steel and acoustic guitars.
