Product Details

Recorded during a period of intense personal reckoning, *Hoka* finds Nahko Bear weaving together his Native American, Puerto Rican, and Filipino heritage with the kind of spiritual urgency that has made Medicine for the People a genuine movement rather than just a band. Across 19 tracks, the Portland-rooted collective builds on the activist folk-rock foundation that earned them a devoted following on the festival circuit, channeling intention and community into something that feels less like a studio album and more like a ceremony.

Some people go a lifetime without knowing their mission in life, without feeling they have true calling, and without knowing why they even do what they do. Nahko is not one of them. And that calling and mission has never been clearer than it is on Nahko and Medicine for the People's third full-length album, HOKA (SideOneDummy Records).
