Music
- 4th World Entertainment :
- Blackfire : BLACKFIRE is a Native American (Diné) traditionally influenced, high-energy, politically driven group comprised of two brothers and their sister. Born into the heart of a political land dispute area on Black Mesa in the Navajo Nation, this Family's powerful music reflects the Hopes, Freedoms, and Barriers of today's world.
- Indigenous : Mato Nanji's always provided the heartbeat of the band Indigenous - along with the warm dusty voice and the soaring, spirited guitar fireworks that have earned the group from South Dakota's Nakota Nation a place among roots rock's elite.
- Red Earth : Formed in Albuquerque, New Mexico in the mid-90s. Purveyors of the covert genre of Tribal Stew. Frybread connosieurs. Rabble rousing lyrical bomb droppers. Stand up comedians. Funkmetalreggae melting pot of personalities...
- The Bastard Fairies : THE BASTARD FAIRIES could be termed an oxymoron. If this is the case then their music is most definitely oxymoronic. Naughty but nice, sweet and sour, beautifully macabre, wonderfully morose. Like a baby with a razor blade, it'll hug you then cut you with no warning.
- The Plateros : There is something about a family band that gives them that certain edge over other acts, something about the way the harmonies are just right and their timing - perfect.
- Yaiva :
Gabriel Yaiva is Dine' and Hopi, a father, one of the top Native hip-hop artist/promoter in North America, a community activist and a graduate of Northern Arizona University with a B.S. in Applied Indigenous Studies and a minor in Economic Development.
