The Drum was formed in Yakama Washington in the summer of 2000, By Jerome Kills Small's Grandson's Zack and Isacc, Mandated to improve the status of Native Americans, To foster inter-cultural understanding and to encourge community involvement. Native American migration between urban centers and reservations demonstrates the interrelatedness of all Native Americans, and from this reality emerges the recognition that our issues and concerns are truly shared. One of our philosophy's is that solutions can be shared as well.
The Cedar River drum is in a transition of going back to it's roots bringing back the old school style of the Lakota Nation's sounds, With the assistance and direction of our Grand Pa and song keeper Jerome kills Small, a well known artist and Instructor of Lakota language and culture at U.S.D. Jerome will be composing our next C.D. A collection of songs dedicated to the water, plants, and all our animal relatives that we all need to sustain and keep our world balanced.
The Cedar River Singers visit between 30-40 schools throughout the year educating students about Native American Dance, Music, and Culture. A major emphasis is placed on teaching and correcting Native American stereotypes and misconceptions that still exist in this country.
