SHUB x HANDSOME TIGER BRING THE ELECTRIC POW WOW TOUR TO MILLS HARDWARE!
Shub (formerly known as DJ Shub) is a Mohawk artist, producer, and composer from Six Nations of the Grand River, and the pioneer behind the powwow-step genre. A former member of the JUNO-winning A Tribe Called Red (since renamed The Halluci Nation), he helped define a new era of Indigenous electronic music with the breakout track "Electric Pow Wow Drum," now exceeding 25 million streams. His acclaimed 2020 debut album War Club cemented his reputation as one of the most vital voices in Indigenous music, winning the 2022 JUNO for Contemporary Indigenous Artist of the Year and performing his title track featuring Snotty Nose Rez Kids on the live broadcast that same year. With Heritage, a two-part body of work and the most ambitious project of his career, Shub has created his most complete statement yet. Shub's decision to drop "DJ" from his name reflects his evolution from turntablist to creator of cinematic sonic landscapes, a journey honored in his new logo, a Thunderbird design rooted in his Mohawk heritage, symbolizing strength, protection, and growth. Raw, genre-defying, and deeply rooted in culture, the two albums together form a full autobiography, weaving electronic, hip-hop, and powwow energy into something that belongs equally in a club, at a festival, or in someone's headphones. Anchored by bucket-list collaborations and a commitment to bringing Indigenous music to the biggest stages in the world, Heritage Part One and Two are unmistakably Shub.
