Here is a drum that I can't believe no one mentioned yet. They traveled up north here years ago and I thought they were one of the strongest Navajo groups that made their way up here, I speak of..................

INDIAN CREEK

Indian Creek was the chaa', and still is I believe. I also like the old Dine' Nation. Em ole songs are still the best. Never heard any like em nowadays.

The Best!

Southern Outlaws
Eagle Creek - won Navajo Nation Fair 2 years in a row.

First drum on Navajo Land, my parents were saying Ralph Zotigh was the one who started singing out this way a lot. He taught a lot of Navajos how to sing and powwow. Most of the first Navajo drums were Northern. Which is where Arlan Neskai's name came up. Dad also mentioned Joe Provo started Oklahoma Days down in the Window Rock area.

My mom thought that powwow kind of started in urban areas, where different tribes resided. Some of those Navajos brought that idea back here too. She said in boarding schools, most of the tribes didn't get along there were always fights.

Gotta throw down my vote for

EAGLE CREEK .......Dennehotso, AZ.

I'd pit them against Shadow Prey, Sun Eagle, Rocky Park, Southern Outlawz, or any other Navajo group any day!!

Id have to say that Rocky Park is like BAD!!!!! Ok like I like alot of drums and stuff but like RP has changed in like the past three years but like the shift they made has worked for them really well. Like I don't know any dine drums that can do a bad *** double beat!!!!

**kiyaanii mom** · 10-19-2005, 03:22 PM

Joe Provo! That's a name from the past!

I'm not sure who the first Navajo Drum group was. But Zuni Knife Wing use to rockit back in the day. WHEW!

Today's best Dine' Drums?
I like Shadow Prey, Eagle Creek, Indian Creek, Stoney Creek, Southern Outlaws, Sun Eagle, Calling Eagle........ Oh I mean, All of Them! LOL

The Four Sacred Mountain singers were one of or the first original style drum group in Dine land. Really enjoyed thier music. I think some of thier original singers jam with the Shiprock Agency singers. Oh yeah, really enjoy the Agency's music as well....keep on jammin fellas...much respect.

LMFAO!!! Wade I haven't heard that in awhile...LOL!!!....he's gonna laugh and wonder who this is but I know...aye!!...anyway, for me I would have to say Indian creek back in the day, White Ridge back in the day and Shadow Prey (aka Antelope Water) back in the day....nowadays, I like listening to any dine drum that sings their own tunes...I really don't have a favorite....I got bros in every drum pretty much.....all I gots to say is just keep putting them out........

**jdazmum** · 02-02-2006, 04:34 PM

I'd have to say Rocky Park and Eagle Creek tops the list. I'd have to agree with the drums who make their own songs too. You can't get up the food chain borrowing other songs. Now and then you have to, but making your own tunes says a lot about your drum group. As for other groups that are not Dine, but are from around here has got to be Blu Thunder and Twin Eagle, they can jam when they want to. Southern Outlaws too, can't forget them.
