 The debut release from OMBIIGIZI – a collaboration between Zoon (Daniel Monkman) and Status/Non Status (Adam Sturgeon) – Sewn Back Together is a rumination on family, a celebration and holistic cleansing, with a strong sense of brotherhood and loving support. An amalgam of their indigenous heritages and their personal musical architectures, Daniel and Adam imbue the lyrics with their families' storytelling, revealing truths and finding common ground amidst their differences. The first single "Residential Military" responds to Canada's reckoning with its residential school system, introducing a concept that Adam describes as Indigenous Futurisms – "a song about finding the past to picture a future which is not always so easy here and now." The family on Sewn Back Together includes Kevin Drew and Nyles Spencer on production, helping steer the collision of these two divergent artists into some glorious territory steeped in shoegaze, dream pop, anthemic rock, Chicago post-rock, 2nd wave emo, and much more.
