Indian Summer Showcase 2008 Performance
Darryl Tonemah (Kiowa/Comanche/Tuscarora) combines the energy of rock, the intelligence of folk, and the heart of country to create a musical niche he calls "Native Americana." He is also a behavioral psychologist and director of the Health Promotion Program at the University of Oklahoma College of Continuing Education. He wrote his most popular song, "Powwow Snag," on the back of a Wal-Mart receipt before giving a speech to Native youth about healthy behaviors.
