The genre-blind, polymath creator Mali Obomsawin is a bassist, composer, vocalist and proud citizen of Odanak First Nation. Obomsawin's increasingly broad body of work spans jazz and roots music, indie-rock and experimental sound, film scoring and all-ages instruction. An international touring artist and accomplished accompanist, her current projects include the shoegaze duo Deerlady, the Julia Keefe Indigenous Big Band and her eponymous free-jazz ensemble. Her music has been featured in the popular television drama “Reservation Dogs” and her score for the critically-acclaimed and Oscar-nominated documentary “Sugarcane,” produced by National Geographic, was called "hauntingly beautiful" by The North Texas Daily. Obomsawin's music liberally references her Indigenous heritage and the challenges of realizing freedom and intimacy under colonialism.
