POP Montréal Music
Ribbon Skirt
Led by Anishinaabe musician Tashiina Buswa, Ribbon Skirt are a band from Montreal, formerly known as Love Language. Their debut album ‘Bite Down’ was released in April 2025 on Mint Records and was produced by Scott ‘Monty’ Munro (Preoccupations) and Marlaena Moore, and mixed by Greg Saunier (Deerhoof). The album brings a darker and more introspective sound, dealing with themes of memory, grief and Buswa’s connection to her Indigenous identity and cultural practices. They have played festivals across North America, including SXSW, New Colossus, Sled Island, Sappyfest, and Pop Montreal, and shared stages with Dehd, Ombiigizi, Packs and Wombo.
