All female band wows audience with their ‘Rez-Style/Surf’ beat

Three indigenous women rooted in the Navajo Nation and Pueblo of Laguna performed in Gallup after Arts Crawl at the Silver Stallion July 14. The trio sat down for an interview with the Sun prior to their evening show at the fledgling bike repair shop.

The Diné word Nizhóní means “beautiful” in English.
