"Khu.éex’ began as a recording in 2013 after a chance meeting between Bernie Worrell and Preston Singletary. Together with Skerik and Stanton Moore, Gene Tagaban and Clarissa Rizal, Khu.éex’ recorded under the direction of Randall Dunn. Khu.éex’ has released a double album, The Wilderness Within and the triple LP They Forgot They Survived. In 2018, the triple LP Héen (which translates to “water” in the Tlingit language) was released. All albums were produced and released by the band independently.

“Khu.éex’ explores Jazz and Funk/Rock with an improvisational style. They fuse these styles with spoken word in English, Tlingit, Haida and Yup’ic languages; the preservation of these native languages though their music is fundamental to their vision as artists. This cross-fertilization results in a new sound. Performance art, using traditional masks and regalia accent their dynamic live performances.” (Source: Official)
