As a matter of fact, I sing with this group.Young Spirit is from Frog Lake, Alberta, Canada, but our members are from throughout North America.We sing Northern plains style, happy that you enjoyed our singing!

I love watching non-indigenous folks experience our music for the first time.

Thank you so much for the review. I am a singer in that video. Our group has practiced traditional music from our beautiful Indigenous culture since 2001. Much respect to you from our group. Many blessing to you and your family from the Young Spirit drum. - Jacob Faithful, Head Singer - Young Spirit.

As a Native American this is so cool that you’re listening.

As a white woman who grew up in a heavy native cultural area and school, the actual projection these men have with their voices to out do the drum that shakes the very foundation of the building is INCREDIBLE to experiance in person... its definetly something I HIGHLY reccomend for anyone and everyone to experiance it IN PERSON. You feel it in your bones.

You picked an absolute banger to use by the way. The boys just deadly...

You're the first reactor I've seen react to native singing. Thanks. Northern Cree, Earth Healer is also amazing.

As a Native American I can honestly say that seeing a vocal coach reacting to my culture gives me a grin from ear to ear 😄 love the positive energy and everything! The video definitely is great but it’s not as good as actually being in the environment😌 it’s a whole different feeling when you can feel the vibrations of the drum and the vocals along with the bells from the dancers it just brings it all together.

As a native American thank you so much for reacting to this! I grew up going to powwows every weekend it was amazing they are powerful as you said thank you again Have a great day!!🤗😁

I’ve read some of the comments for this post and started laughing…there’s so many of us indigenous people here!! Some people recommended Cozad singers and Northern Cree…hang on gang…that’s an advanced class and we don’t want to overload this young lady with that much goodness….lol!

I'm. Méxican brother from the South, I love and respect our native brothers from the north, I enjoy their songs, I'm a loyal fan of Young Spirit, I have seen them performing near San Manuel casino and near morongo reservation, that's the beauty of listening to their songs and let yourself go with the sound of the Drum, the heart beat of mother earth!! Aho!! My native brothers and sisters.

For so long we weren't allowed to sing or dance. It was illegal by the US government. We sing & dance for our elders & our ancestors who weren't allowed to. The beat is in our spirit. Our hearts. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Come to a pow wow to see and hear in person. ✊🏽🪶

Hello, Rebecca! Just want to take a moment to say these are North American native peoples, not South American. You would typically find drum circles like this performing at pow wows across North America, particularly in Canada and the U.S. 😊

She felt the power of the drum! Sent her to another place when she closed her eyes! Awesome!! She should incorporate powwow into her playlist…

on behalf of a lot of different tribes and native/indigenous peoples, you have our upmost respect because of how much appreciation you showed to our culture. you hardly ever see anyone reacting to our beautiful culture. may you always be blessed and live a happy and peaceful life

The technique they’re using is called pinching. Depending on the powwow contest it can be allowed or not. But holy shit when someone nails it it’s incredible to hear especially in person

As a Native Canadian I'm truly grateful for your appreciation of the music the beat and the voices it warms my heart that this has reached the UK

I've been a dancer and singer for 45 years, thank you for being very respectful in north American culture. Enjoy your show, will definitely follow you....

I love watching her reaction to this. I miss going to sleep at the end of powwow night in the tent and groups singing. I would always sleep so good.

@ <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="331">5:31</a> you felt the ancestors, even if youre not directly native they are still here if you want to listen, such a beautiful reaction to our culture wado.

“It’s almost like they’re one person” You’re right on with that. In my Native American culture, which is different but similar to theirs, we talk a lot in our public speeches how we’re all one people and this form of singing pays respect to that belief. ❤️

I’m a native from Canada and I’ve been subscribed to you for years! I was pleasantly surprised that you reacted to this and I appreciate how much you appreciate it!

As a Native American I can tell you just gained a ton of Native subscribers 🤘❤️ I love this review 💯

Your reaction is pure. Can tell you felt the medicine on that song hoiiiichaaaa!!

As a Native American who grew up on powwows. Thank you for taking the time to listen and react. It’s nice to see cultural music appreciated.

As a 2s native person from a small rez in Alberta kkkanada this made me happy. Isneyes for listening.

Obviously to each their own but for me thats what the story of N. America sounds like. I have not a drop of native american blood but I went to several pow wows as a young man. That driving heart beat percussion, the singing & the dancing is hypnotic. I'm so glad you took the chance & reacted to this! Also, I just spent last night teaching my daughters about pow wows & binging KZfaq native dance competitions. So this was a little freaky but you know, great minds & all that

This is crazy!!! I always wanted someone to do a review on powwow singers!!! As a Native this is really cool and I applaud your work!!❤️😆

To Rebecca. Imagine the drum is a heartbeat, it is what everything in the dancing circle is led by. Just as our hearts lead us. The songs are sacred as well. I’m a white man with an adopted full blood native brother, and I’m lucky to be able to call these amazing people my kin by that adoption. To all you native Americans, and First Nations people, I say a humble thank you for letting me live among you and your people.

The look on her face when the first drum hit to hearing them sing was priceless! I could never sing like this, but I miss being in the drum. Saved my life! Would love to see you react to more.

Imagine being right there in person listening to the song. You can feel the energy of the drum and the singers. Feels like waves hitting you.

I find it amazing how many people think we're all dead,but we're not. WE SHALL REMAIN....love you doll. Respect to u too.

I just want people try to comprehend and understand that these men and women are singing CLEARLY AS the blue sky while singing over the ROAR of a drum with 6-10 sticks that rattles full arenas and you can FEEL the bass from the drum and the shivers down your spine from the realest release of singing energy you could ever feel and our native brothers and sisters create it wonderfully

BEGGING you to do more on our culture!!! There is a video called the “boys wicked tune” and it’s one I can’t stop singing. It is the heartbeat of our people and you can deffo feel it!

Badass powwow song,from a badass drum group

So much respect and love. Indigenous people are so under respected and under appreciated. This is beautiful and I love everything about it. Please bring awareness to missing indigenous people.

Watching you getting surprised at them singing made me really happy, as I've grown up on Powwow grounds and never and I mean never questioned the singers because I always thought was normal to hear their vocal ranges (I'm anishinaabe ^^)

Just think the Canadian and US gov tried to kill us off and you would not ever seen this beautiful music. Also the beautiful dancing and most of all the Native tradition.

The beat of the drum is the heartbeat of our mothers. It soothes us because we are reminded of that heartbeat while in the womb. That's why it's also hard to pause

Glad You Enjoyed it. My Kuzin was one of those lead singers. E.Williams

Native American here from the Navajo or Dine' tribe. Great reaction to a powerful song. If you ever come to the US I would gladly accompany you to a powwow. 😁😁😁😁

I'm with you on the run around the room doing things i dont understand ,so energizing, I love it .

This music is really giving me goosebumps. It has a certain intensity to it that speaks to a more ancient part of my being.

Tiktok brought me here wanted to see the whole thing. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="208">3:28</a>-<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="219">3:39</a> wanted to see this reaction. YOUNG SPIRIT!

I'm Northern Tutchone from Yukon Canada and thank you. Check out Northern Cree "Smiling". You'll love it. ✌❤🇨🇦

Hi there!! Thanks for reacting to Young Spirit Pow WOW , these guys are from the First Nation Indigenous tribes of North America. The singers would wait for one of the lead singers to start the singing then the rest of the drum circle singers will join in, followed by some Native American war/battle cries when they are singing. You should react to some more pow wow videos such as The Men’s Northern traditional dance and the United Pueblo Buffalo dance as a dedication tribute dance to the Water Protectors that protested against the Dakota Access PipeLine back in 2016 from Gathering of Nations Pow Wow in Albuquerque,New Mexico.

THANK YOU for reacting to one of if not BEST drum groups of ALL TIME, if anyone has time, go to your local powwow, stand by the drum when they are singing like this, It is empowering and you can feel the drum and singing go through your body, it is a fantastic experience and you will forever remeber it. MUCH NATIVE LOVE!!

As a Native American, I am proud and honored that you took the time to react to this song. Many happy blessings upon you💖... You made my day😁...

Yay Rebecca!! I've been watching and catching up on your reactions for quite a while now, but seeing this today makes me extraordinarily proud! You've crossed over into my culture and I'm loving your reactions even more now, if that's possible. These men, these singers, throughout our Native North America have powerfully melodic voices and I cannot wait for you to delve deeper into these drum groups and singers hopefully with a recommendation or two from me, as well. 😁 Love, love, love ya girly! 🔥💖

I know it's a year old video, but I just stumbled upon it. Young Spirit is amazing live. Thank you for showcasing us Natives YEEEEEEEE YEEEEEEEE🤘🏾

It means an incredible amount to me for someone to comment positively on my culture and native songs as I've heard people say that we are just screaming. It really is incredible for non natives to hear and appreciate indigenous music. Much love from Cherokee Nation!

Young Spirit is one of my favorite drum groups

Young Spirit makes my soul tremble in joy. Blessings upon you for exploring the unique and quintessentially timeless sound of Indigenous peoples in ceremony.

I love that you shared this! This is my heritage and culture and this drum group gave me absolute chills! Even choked me up. Powerful!

As a Native American I love seeing you react to our music for the first time :) This really made smile

Thank you for highlighting our music. Born to and raised on it, I can fall asleep to it every night. Love you for this.

I am egyptian and been attending the powwows maybe for the last whole year , thier songs & dances and cultural customs is amazingly unique, believe it or not even when I understand nothing of the words but their songs gets me n such a very good and energetic mood ... always super great to be around indigenous ppl, ❤ & respect to this unique nation

Chills. EVERY TIME CHILLS. Powwow

You need to attend grand entry at gathering of nations (or any pow wow) at least once in your life. Hearing the bells and jingles from our regalia on beat with the singing is so beyond beautiful. ♥️

Thank You! One of my favorite videos of Young Spirit. #RVA 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I remember growing up in high school, all of us no matter what grade we used to get together and fill the valley with this singing at night outside. I miss those days. We were a community, the kids did it for fun. It was on the Navajo Reservation. It’s in native language and you just know the song or beat from the heart. You just know the song, I don’t know how to explain it 😅

This is so cool!! Check out the Northern Indigenous who throat sing - they’ll blow your mind ❤️

Should give Cozads Champion Song a look, very powerful song

Awesome video Rebecca!! I absolutely love when others get to experience a part of our culture! Thank you for sharing with all of your viewers ❤

Most people don't realize that Native American music is not only very diverse, but most styles of singing are more complex then Opera.

Native American drumming and singing hits you right in the soul and makes you want to move in ways you wouldn't otherwise. It's a deeply spiritual experience.

Young Spirit ❤ You can attend a PowWow in North America, Canada & USA! In person is amazing!

WALKING BUFFALO. thy r CHAMPION SINGERS! the best in the WORLD!! all insync.. drum, singing, women singers too.

You need to hear some Fawn Wood next. She’s an amazing Native singer as well.

Came here from TikTok. They have the most beautiful and powerful voice.

My Favorite Pow Wow Drum and Singers

HELLO!!!!! ❤ Happy to see you again and happy to see you do a video on this thank you!! You are truly awesome!!! \,,/

One thing may have missed is how much the women serve these songs. Being a” back up singer” in native culture is just as important as a drummer. They balance out the song.

It hits in a different way when the singing is nmot about entertaining but more about remembering the ancestors , one beat , one voice delivered by a group of awesome people. Thanks for sharing this .

Blackfeet here, our music always makes me so emotional. Happy songs, sad songs, funny songs, etc. no matter what it is they just speak to the soul💖 my son just turned 7, and he's just getting an appreciation for our music, he understanding and now wants to dance, but we're not part of any officially recognized "tribe", cuz we're not "qualified". But I'd love to find the closest pow wow to go to, so we can still feel our roots, we both thirst for our heritage and it's so apparent! If anyone has any resources or connections I'd be forever grateful! -Sending love from the Mojave desert in So Cal!💖

Thanks for reacting to this! Made me smile! :D

Kudos for playing this video native American singing and drumming is Awesome!

Pinching helps control in a sense. You see male singers do this in many groups. If they allow a full flow, it hurts. And really, if these performers have a bit of trouble singing a ‘normal’ song. Not to say they will be bad at it. It’s just their voices are set for this setting.

Hey Rebecca, I suggested this to you about 2 years ago. I sent you the link and i figured you'd like the singing and it had a bit of dancing at the end of the video. Glad you're enjoying it and you're finally doing this RVA. Much love from Diné (Navajo) Nation.

I love your reaction! Especially when you said you felt the need to run around the room, our powwow music is meant to have us wanting to dance. Much respect to you!

Good song! Cool to see someone react to our music like this, it’s all about energy, the feeling u get, there’s a lot of good groups out there different styles, languages/songs to react to. There’s another style of Native American singing called round dance or hand drum singing. Maybe u can check that out too when you get a chance. If u liked this then u would for sure like that as well. I’ll recommend Arnold Alexis of the Logan Alexis Singers🙌🏾

Never be afraid to dance!! the drum, the singing is for the people everyone dances their own style

Its a whole experience when you stand next to the drum. The power of the singing and stroke of the down beats of each chorus literally shakes your heart. Love being indigenous

Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe here from Northern MN. Just wanted to say that it was great video and thank you for experiencing the culture. Keep up the channel, I've been subscribed for awhile now. It was good to see this

Young Spirit one of the Greatest Native American Singing groups ever. Edit: glad to see people can appreciate our music. Can't believe it has been 10 years since they performed this song. Kudos to Jacob and the Boys

Fawn wood is a great singer as well something to check out.

Dude! Two of my faves on one vid at the same time...... awesome!

Thank you for reviewing this group. Blessings.

just the best sound ever!

I would rather go to a pow wow than any performers concert....God bless our native culture 🙏

This always brings me to tears. So powerful! Great respect for the performers!

Oh dear God Rebecca! I flung out my arms and whooped when you had your first to Young Spirit. I watched carefully and then you transported into the currents - the songs are like none other. I was with my hubby at an indoor Powwow auditorium where the entire building shook- I sat down in one of the auditorium seats, and woke up THREE HOURS later. Truly transporting songs. I am not sure about the vocal cord holding- some say it works to achieve a certain sound, and some say it's ineffectual and done for thinking it's working. I cannot scream so high to try it myself. Anyway, your outstanding faces and eyepopping shock made my YEARS and YEARS. I am so filled gladly that you listened, and then allowed that song to enter your essence. Good on you and your happiness with Songs. Now get looking at Chicken dances!!!

The power of our singing

Amazingly powerful.......real Americans.

Thanks for a great reaction and thanks for the hug!! Lots of love and a big hug.❤❤🌹🌹

I love the way you felt it in your soul and couldn't explain it. Did you get chills? You should have. ❤️

Do a video with northern cree! They are Grammy winners :)

That should chase ALL the Evil Spirits Away :)

It’s so awesome to see this!!! Makes me excited for this years powwow!!!

I’m James Bay Cree in Canada this was great to see Meegwetch! (Thank you) Highly encourage anyone to go to a powwow up here in Canada plains style singing is amazing and powerful can’t wait for the stampede next month out there!
