In this episode, Our PNW Music talks with Whatcom County’s J.P. Falcon Grady (of The J.P. Falcon Band). J.P., originally from the Blackfeet Nation out of Browning MT, tells us about his life growing up in with his unconditionally loving and supportive adoptive family, but not always finding the same in others from outside of his home. He talks about how his family always made sure he was educated about his Native American heritage and kept that ingrained in him. J.P. moved around fairly often due to his dad’s profession, a college professor who taught electrical engineering at Montana State University, Purdue University and Arizona State University. The Grady family eventually moved to Whatcom County when J.P. was in high school and was immediately embraced by the Lummi Nation where he finally felt welcome and accepted by people outside of his Immediate family.
Do you want to know what the first song was that J.P. taught himself to play on the guitar? Or what movie taught him to sing? Or why he tends to drift off when you’re having dinner with him in a restaurant? Or what animal was messing with him one quiet night on Lummi Point? All these questions are answered in this podcast. While we love all of our interviews, J.P. definitely stands out as a favorite. An amazing songwriter, an amazing musician and an amazing human being. We are so lucky to have J.P. Falcon Grady here in the NW. Make sure to follow him on his social media pages so you won’t miss any upcoming performances.
