Archive material and source history
Cherokee Red formed in Oklahoma during the 1990s with A. Paul Clark on vocals and guitar, Dennis Koster on bass and vocals, and Marv Washington on drums. Their first album, 'Native Son,' came out in 1995 and included the song 'Absent Heart,' which became their most recognizable track. They followed it with albums like 'Spirit Road' in 1997 and 'Teardrop Moon' in 2000.
Their music drew from Native American melodies, and songs like 'Blissful Blows' and 'Heavy Soul' reflected that influence. The band faced some criticism for blending different musical elements, but they kept working. Marv Washington died unexpectedly in 2005, which was a difficult moment for the group.
Cherokee Red's recordings have appeared in some films and television shows over time. 'Absent Heart' is still the song people know them for.
