Take Your Power Back

Take Your Power Back by Nahko and Medicine for the People is an alternative, world music album consisting of 18 indie tracks. Portland, Oregon-based, Nahko was adopted at less than a year old by a conservative Caucasian family that introduced him into music and worship, where he began taking piano lessons and singing in the church choir. Nahko Bear (singer), Justin Chittams (drums), Joe Hall (lead guitar), Patricio Zuñiga Labarca (bass guitar), Max Ribner (trumpet, flugelhorn), Tim Snider (electric violin) and TJ Schaper (trombone) are all the members. This six-membered band is releasing Take Your Power Back as their fourth record as a band, but the fifth record for Nahko Bear, who released My Name is Bear as a solo act in 2017. -mxdwn Music

    Tribal-enthused music for exploration of introspection.

  • Maximum Volume Music

    The songs are powerful with subjects that are deeply spiritual, at times dark, personal, and emotional. This could be seen as new age babble from a less committed artist, but I found it quite humbling and empowering.

    This impeccable album was easy on my ear, I played it all in one sitting and was extremely enchanted at the very same time. Everything about it was simply spot on, Nakho’s vibrant vocals were drenched in folk goodness whilst his song writing abilities were truly exceptional.

    ‘Take Your Power Back’ is a wondrous album. It’s powerful, emotional, and so heart-wrenchingly uplifting that it’s hard to find anything to fault; an harmonious patch of wonder in an otherwise bleak world.
