AT THE PARTY
While the other tracks on the Broken Treaties album by Silverbird do not directly address Native American issues, there is some social commentary, notably on “Poor Boy”. The final song on the album, “Violet” was singled out for praise by the piece on the album on the www.weapon-shaped.com website. My own favorites on the album are “Broken Treaties”, “Friends”, “At the Party” and “Sonny”.

I really delighted in being able to tell Silverbird’s story as the first Native American rock band to get a major recording contract. Here is a sample of Silverbird songs from the album that I have (shown above): “Would You” at www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuTQ_W5VExU , “Fight” at www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCMLSE_0yNk , and “At the Party” at www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5-cqT77L8Q .
