She is a vocalist of many genres but specializes in traditional round dance, powwow, and hand game songs. She travels throughout North America to powwows as a backup singer for drum groups and performs solo for powwow audiences. Her vocal abilities range from a soft serenade to an empowering hail, soaring above in a unique way that reveals the pride of her identity as a Lakota woman. Willows is a folk-fusion ensemble that blends together psychedelic rock with soulful bossa nova grooves and orchestral elements. The band's core consists of guitarist and primary composer Colin Peters and vocalist Jada Brown, who sing in harmony and form the group's distinctive sound. They are accompanied by melodic stringsolo's and poetic lyricism. Everyone is welcome to this inclusive and enriching event. Presented by Red Wing Arts & The Honoring Dakota Project and sponsored by the City of Red Wing. Concerts sponsored by: Treasure Island Resort & Casino
