Black Belt Eagle Scout and Mato Wayuhi with Ailani

“If you can imagine all of the best things that the Pacific Northwest has brought us — Mount Eerie, grunge, Sleater-Kinney, The Girls Rock Camp, and lush mountain ranges — reimagined and told through the perspective of an Indigenous Swinomish/Iñupiaq woman; if you can imagine the magic that would bring to your life, then you can imagine Black Belt Eagle Scout.”
— She Shreds Magazine

Black Belt Eagle Scout and Mato Wayuhi, with Ailani, are invited by Jeffrey Gibson to engage with his installation POWER FULL BECAUSE WE’RE DIFFERENT through this evening-length performance in MASS MoCA's Club B10.

The duo are co-headlining “The Black Bear” national tour beginning in February 2026, with support from fellow Indigenous artist Ailani (Tewa Pueblo). Their live show is a seamless set that begins with Mato Wayuhi songs, transitions into KP + Mato collaborations, and closes with Black Belt Eagle Scout songs—all performed with a full live band. The performance flows as one continuous experience, weaving together their voices, styles, and energy into a powerful celebration of sound and collaboration.
