Description
Ribbon Skirt is a Montreal-based band led by Anishinaabe musician Tashiina Buswa and guitarist Billy Riley. Their sound is raw and enveloping, channeling angular guitars, driving rhythms, and lyrical threads that explore memory, love, grief, and Buswa's relationship to her Indigenous heritage. Their debut album, Bite Down, was met with critical acclaim and quickly established Ribbon Skirt as one of the most compelling new voices in indie music - earning Stereogum's Album of the Week and a shortlist nomination for the 2025 Polaris Music Prize.
