Ribbon Skirt

Montreal, QC

Led by Anishinaabe musician Tashiina Buswa, Ribbon Skirt is a four-piece alternative group from Montreal formerly known as Love Language. Their 2025 debut album Bite Down (released on Mint Records) brings a darker and more introspective sound, dealing with themes of memory, grief and Buswa’s connection to her Indigenous identity and cultural practices.
