Ulali All My Relations Native American


From the Ulali Website:
A note about "All My Relations" The music for All My Relations" is based on an Irish drinking song from the late 1700's. Gary Owen is actually the American pronunciation of two Gaelic words that roughly translate into Owen's Garden, (and I do mean roughly) which is or was a place in Ireland where people gathered to drink and whatever. It was listed as "Auld Bessy" at a publishing in 1788 and subsequently attributed to "Jackson of Cork" around 1800. It was adopted by the American military during the 1800's as a marching song. It is often referred to as Gary Owen March or Hale in the States. It was often used by the American military as they marched into battle to kill the Native Americans, most notably by Custer at the battle of Little Big Horn as he marched against the Lakota Nation. It continues to this day to be used by the American military. Pura Fe wrote the narative that Ulali speaks over the music. We use it as the background of the narative to commemorate and honor all our relations and others who have died throughout the wars.

Known for their unusual harmonies and wide vocal and musical range, the trio conveys their message about the struggles of Aboriginal peoples especially American Indian women and use their powerful voices and break stereotypes with political, romantic and humorous music. "We don't sing to be part of a competition," Pura Fe says. "Our voices are an extension of our community, our struggles, our homeland. That's why we sing."
