In 2007, Choctaw composer Brad Clonch and Chickasaw composer Jeff Carpenter from Ada, Oklahoma, formed the band Injunuity. Featuring flute melodies and branching into modern genres, they describe their sound to be “not your grandfather’s flute music”. Injunuity is passionate about doing justice to the tradition and spirituality of the Native flute while merging into pop culture. The band’s album Mahli was nominated for the 2016 Native American Music Awards’ “Album of the Year”. Partly in response to fan requests, this album puts stronger focus on the Native flute, featuring multiple flutes arranged for numerous parts to create an overall more acoustic, traditional sound.
