About me
Moontee Sinquah is from the Hopi, Tewa, and Choctaw Nations and grew up on the Hopi reservation in the Village of Shugopavi in Northern Arizona. Moontee is deeply rooted in the Hopi culture and tradition. In the Hopi way, clans are passed down from one's mother, making Moontee a part of the Water Clan. As part of the Hopi way of life, ceremonial dances occur throughout the year for rain and peace. During this time in Moontee's young life, music became an essential part of him. It is apparent that Moontee holds and carries these Hopi teachings in his life and his love of music. You will notice traditional and contemporary singing styles in his thunderous and melodic voice.
Moontee is a four-time World Hoop Dance Champion—a title he holds humbly and, with it, educates and entertains as much as possible worldwide. Moontee Sinquah's son, Scott, performs the Men's Fancy War Dance. His son, Samspon Sixkiller Sinquah, will join us to sing.
