Zakhlawi Lintow8ganal — Voices in the Woods

Why This Record Matters
A rare piece of Northeastern Tribal Region music history, this release documents Abenaki storytelling and musical tradition through the work of Marge Bruchac and Justin Kennick, key contributors to the preservation and education of Indigenous language and culture in the Vermont and greater Northeastern Woodland region. Emerging from a pre-digital era of cultural documentation and educational outreach, the recordings blend oral tradition, song, and instrumentation rooted in Abenaki heritage, and captures the intimate, independent regional sound of the region.

Collector Note
Independent Indigenous release on Good Mind Records with strong cultural and educational significance. Long out of print with niche but dedicated demand among collectors of Native American music, folklorists, and institutional buyers.
