FREE Concert: Darryl Tonemah LIVE at the Heard Museum

Darryl Tonemah is hitting the stage at the Heard Museum this August for a can’t-miss FREE concert full of soul, wit, and Indigenous creativity!

A singer/songwriter in the purest sense, Tonemah’s performances blend the energy of rock, the intelligence of folk, and the heart of country into a sound he calls “Native Americana.” As the trickster, the son, the father, or the seeker, Tonemah is always the consummate storyteller offering meaning where the listener needs to find it. Get ready for live versions of fan favorites like Pow Wow Snag, Rezzylicious, and The Missouri — streaming online now (and electrifying in-person)!

Doors to the show open at 6 p.m. Come anytime starting at 5 p.m. to grab a soda, wine, or beer from the bar. Then cool off in the A/C and settle into the lounge space in the foyer of Steele Auditorium. The bar will close at 8 p.m. Bring a friend or make a friend and let the music move you.
