Representing the Apsaalokke Nation, Supaman Headlines The Gathering Harvest Festival Oct. 21-22

7/27/2017

 

​Agenda


​     As a member of the “Apsaalooke Nation”, Supaman makes his home on the Crow reservation in Montana. “Supaman” Is Christian Takes Gun Parrish, a Native American dancer and innovative hip hop artist who has dedicated his life to empowering and spreading a message of hope through culture and music.
     He has been the recipient of the Nammy “Native American Music Award”, “North American Indigenous Image Award”, and  7 “Tunney Awards”. He recently was awarded  The Aboriginal Peoples Choice Music Award in Canada for best video and was voted MTV’s new Artist of the Week!
     His latest video’s titled “Prayer Loop Song” and “Why” both have gone viral and have received over 2 million views on youtube and facebook which has put him in high demand touring extensively throughout the U.S.A and internationally.
     He has performed for Google at the Google headquarters in San Francisco and got to dance in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade in New York City. He recently was asked to audition for America’s Got Talent and the Broadway play Hamilton.  
     Christian’s presentation combines Native American culture and urban hip hop culture which dazzles audiences and captivates listeners. For this he has gained the respect of his culture and generation. The communicative talent along with the compassion that exudes from his music allows him to connect with people from all walks of life.
​     His uncanny ability to motivate, encourage, and inspire through dance, and hip hop music keeps him at the forefront among his contemporaries.

"I strive to inspire & motivate while honoring the generations who've come before me through art, culture and design. My goal is to light up the darkness by igniting the fire for positive change in all of us through music and visual medicine. May we unite as human beings in peace, love, respect and honor"!  -- Christian Takes Gun Parrish "Supaman"​

2016 Pow Wow Circuit and Etiquette

2/15/2016

Powwow Etiquette & Tips
  • Do not talk while an elder is speaking on the address system.
  • Dress properly-nothing too revealing for the ladies.
  • Leave the chairs around the dance area alone. They are for the dancers--bring your own.
  • Do not touch the dancers or their regalia.
  • Ask before you take a photo—it's just polite and dancers may have religious reasons for avoiding photos. Never enter the dance arena for a photo.
  • Listen to the MC. He will tell you when to take your hats and caps off during traditional dances.
  • When a blanket dance is announced, be prepared to donate a few dollars when the blanket passes you. The money will be donated to the person or drum group being honored.
  • Ask people around you to explain things you don't understand-most will be eager to share their knowledge with you.
