My featured artist this week is Hataaliinez Wheeler, Dine, from Window Rock Arizona. He’s been described as a “modern kind of crooner…” and a “pensive, deep voiced troubadour.” Now residing in Albuquerque, NM, Hataalii, was recently signed to Danger Bird Records out of Los Angeles with his first album with the label set to be released later this summer. This week he joins me to discuss all of this, his latest indie surf pop singles, Presidents Got Me All Night Long, Land of Poor Chance, his acting debut on AMC’s Dark Winds and so much more. Enjoy!
