Cultural Performance Stage featuring
Darryl Tonemah 
Darryl Tonemah had no idea that when he began writing songs, while attending college, that several years, shows, CD's, nominations, radio and TV appearances, and a Native American Music Award, that he would be releasing his 5th CD "Inkblot's & Random Thoughts" to what has be come an international fan base. All the time still retaining the same small town Midwestern point of view and great storytelling that has become his trademark.
A singer/songwriter in the purist sense, Tonemah combines the energy of rock, the intelligence of folk and the heart of country, to create a musical niche he calls, "Native Americana".
Darryl will perform live during the Red Earth Festival singing an intimate acoustic set. CD's will be available for purchase.
