Wathéča Records, a Lakȟóta owned project based in Mní Sóta and founded in 2022, is a label and archival project focused on highlighting North American Indigenous musicians and artists who have often been overlooked within the canons of rock, folk, and country music. Revolving around an archive of rare vinyl records, “Wathéča Records Sourcebook” showcases what makes physical media and printed ephemera so memorable and ripe for connection while simultaneously documenting a deep reverence for the Indigenous musicians and artists featured throughout the book. From the likes of Floyd Westerman and Buddy Red Bow, to the Zuni Midnighters and the Navajo Sundowners, and many more, “Wathéča Records Sourcebook” is guided by the act of breathing energy and pride into the music for readers to connect with and appreciate, building community around the music, and celebrating how the virtues of the archive promote our bond with memory and history. The pages of this illustrious book feature in-situ photography of album artwork and printed ephemera directly from the Wathéča Records collection, behind the scenes documentation of the making and curation of Wathéča Records, as well as an array of reprinted comments handpicked from the Wathéča Records YouTube channel. Posted by communities of fans and avid listeners, the inclusion of these joyous and meaningful comments connect readers with the memories and community that exists behind the music.

![AVAILABLE FOR ORDER at eraeditions.art *** “Emma cc Cook: MANNERS,” *** $40 + S/H, Ships Worldwide :) Help support emerging art publishers This artist monograph features the work of LA-based artist Emma cc Cook. The book weaves together select paintings and sculptures by Cook spanning from 2019–2025 along with free verse writings by the artist that invite us to step further into the worlds and narratives cultivating within Cook’s body of work. Cook’s painted worlds are often accompanied by curious and often fuzzy storyboard-like vignettes and overlaid imagery that hover across the paintings. In response, the book’s margins and gutters are activated by their own overlaid images that converse with and offer playful glimpses into Cook’s themes, research, and trove of visual references that she has collected throughout the years.
