Robert Mirabal has been described as a Native American "Renaissance man". It is a fitting description for this musician, composer, painter, master craftsman, poet, actor, screenwriter, author, horseman, and farmer. But in Mirabal's case, the whole is much greater than the sum of its parts.
An accomplished, renowned Native Ameri- can flute player and maker from Taos Pueblo in New Mexico, Robert's flutes have been displayed at the Smithsonian Institute's Museum of the American Indian. An award-winning musician, Mirabal performs worldwide, sharing flute songs, tribal rock, dance, and storytelling. Mirabal has twice been named the Native American Music Award's Artist of the Year, and has received the Songwriter of the Year award three times. He is also a two-time Grammy Award winner. His breakthrough PBS musical production, "Music From a Painted Cave", remains a benchmark of Native American traditional/rock fusion and storytelling.
Robert Mirabal came of age in a traditional family that was broken apart by government relocation policies. "I grew up with my grandparents and mom, an all woman family mostly. That was the classic thing in the '70s, a lot of relocation, children being taken from their homes by government and economics, marriages breaking up. I didn't have much connection with my father."
Growing up, Mirabal spoke the Tiwa language at home and to this day participates in the traditional ways and rituals of his people.
Mirabal remained in Taos to help care for his aging grandparents and went to the Indian school at the pueblo, where he picked up on an array of instruments: "I learned clarinet, sax, piano, drums, anything I could get my hands on." he recalls. "But it wasn't until I started playing flute at 18 that music took me over."
But Robert Mirabal is also a citizen of the world. He has performed around the planet with his band Rare Tribal Mob and a solo artist. He has collaborated with a diverse array of artists across a myriad of disciplines.
Mirabal has composed music for Japanese avant-garde modern dancers Eiko and Koma, garnering New York's Dance and Performance Bessie Award for the score. He has had an ongoing relation with progressive string quartet ETHEL including collaborative tours, performances at BAM's Next Wave Festival and most recently the CD "The River", a cross-cultural and cross-genre tour de force that "All About Jazz" called "tantalizing dialog... a fine creative music borne out of diverse cultural influences, artistic experimentation and mutual respect". Along with fellow Grammy-winning artist and Mohican nation singer-songwriter Bill Miller, he created the innovative work "Native Suite: Chants, Dances and the Remembered Earth". The project was both experimental and traditional, featuring flute and percussion as well as pow-wow singing. His groundbreaking band Mirabal featured rock bassist Mark Andes (Spirit, Heart), traditional percussion master Reynaldo Lujan, guitarist Andy York (John Mellencamp, John Fogerty) and acclaimed drummer Kenny Arnoff. Most recently, he has collaborated with Festival Ballet Albuquerque and their artistic director Patricia Dickinson along with legendary New York City Ballet dancer Jock Soto and, at Carnegie Hall, with German born multimedia environmental artist Sibylle Szaggars Redford in her ongoing work "Way Of The Rain".
Robert's television credits include "Yellowstone" with Kevin Costner, "Walker, Texas Ranger" and feature films "Woman Walks Ahead" with Jessica Chastain, "Georgia O'Keeffe" with Joan Allen and Jeremy Irons. Robert will next be seen starring opposite Whip Hubley in the film "Road To Everywhere" (2024).
Robert's music and compositions can be heard in a number of television and motion picture productions, most recently the films Prey where he added soundscapes, vocal chant, flutes and percussionist and George RR Martin's short film adaption of the sci-fi classic "Night of The Cooters". He scored the soundtrack for the 4-part Hulu series tentatively titled "Ring of Fire: The Life of Annie Mae Aquash" (2024).- Visual Effects
