Clan/destine introduces a new sound, by blending contemporary influences to their heritage and creating a perfect balance of new with the old. This earned Clan/destine a Native American Music Award (NAMMY) in the Best Pop/Rock category for Deeply Rooted; the group's second self-produced album. The group has 3 full length recordings. The first was produced and released with Canyon Records; the second and third were produced independently with their own label, Rezdawgs Inc.
