Bio / Background

This is Joy Harjo's acclaimed first CD of music which garnered many awards and cool reviews in new release by Harjo's own label, Mekko Productions, Inc..When it was first released in 1997 Pulse Magazine called it the "best dub poetry album to be released in North America".

From the liner notes: The term poetic justice is a term of grace, expressing how justice can appear in the wolrd despite forces of confusion and destruction. The band takes its name from this term because...(we) have wored for justice in our lives, through any means possible including the music.

The music that speaks for us is a blend of influences that speak of community, love for the people, for all creatures, and of the sacred.
