Lone Eagle/The Forest: Coyote Makes a World

Join us for the Lone Eagle/The Forest: Coyote Makes a World concert on Thursday, October 16, at 7:30 pm at the Marsh Memorial Chapel.

As the central figure within Indigenous storytelling traditions of the Interior Northwest, Coyote navigates the tenuous and tumultuous present in Coyote Makes a World, a collaborative multimedia project between storyteller/vocalist čnaq’ymi (lone eagle) and The Forest, a cooperative percussion ensemble featuring Gustavo Aguilar, Leah Bowden, Andrew Drury, and Michael Wimberly. Centered on stories that embody the qualities of long-held Native storytelling traditions, here Coyote encounters the contemporary crises of our times, oblivious to the consequences of his actions in ways that are familiar, unsettling, and often humorous. Set within a dynamic rhythmic landscape layered with songs and mesmerizing vocalizations, Coyote Makes a World reflects the world we’ve made while taking the listener to places they’ve never before encountered.

This event is free and open to the Springfield College community and the public.
