Their newest album Stand On My Shoulder builds on connection and revolutionary love as the foundation for collective liberation that ran throughout Indian Yard. The album cover art is a monoprint created by Galanin based on a photograph of his father in Tlingit regalia. The regalia remains but the wearer is not visible leaving space to be filled by future generations. With Stand On My Shoulder Ya Tseen uplifts the gifts given to us by our ancestors and the collective responsibilities we have to future generations. This album is an incandescent exploration of existence and a celebration of the persistence of love and connection to Land. Just below the Arctic Circle a songwriter with fiery lush vocal texture warms her ancestral land Alaska Ashley Young invites you in like a friend with her refreshing honesty and infectious laughter Her unquenchable curiosity has led her to exploring expressions unbound by genre Her focus is rather on using music to reveal vulnerable truths that many experience but are often afraid to discuss.
