Blackfire will be undertaking European tour dates in February and March

Blackfire is comprised of two brothers and their sister Jeneda, Clayson and Klee Benally. Born into the heart of a political land dispute area on Black Mesa in the Navajo Nation, this family’s powerful music reflects the Hopes, Freedoms, and Barriers of today’s world.

Blackfire’s style encompasses traditional Native American, Punk-Rock and “Alter-Native” music and bears strong socio-political messages regarding government oppression, relocation of indigenous people, eco-cide, genocide, domestic violence and human rights.
Blackfire sometimes combines performances with their Native American dance troupe, www.blackfire.net/benallyThe Jones Benally Family.

The late godfather of punk Joey Ramone declared them “Fireball Punk-Rock.” Blackfire is internationally acclaimed and has a strong grassroots following around the world owing to their frequent touring of Europe, the U.S. Canada and Mexico since 1989. They were the first Native American band to take part in on the Van’s Warped Tour and were also featured performers in the “Festival in the Desert,” in the Sahara Desert in Mali, Africa.

In the recent past, Blackfire has been awarded the Native American Music Awards “Group of the Year” for their “Woody Guthrie Singles” recording, and “Best Pop/Rock Album for their full length release, “One Nation Under.”

Blackfire only plays all ages venues, whether concerts, festivals or clubs.

Blackfire’s independent release “One Nation Under” on Tacoho Records is available nation-wide through Canyon Records. Blackfire strongly promotes the respect of all cultures. They do many workshops, lectures and school residencies.
