Blackbraid

Blackbraid is an American black metal project from the Adirondack Mountains, New York, formed in 2022. The project is the solo endeavor of its creator, Jon Krieger. A native Mexican, Krieger is also known by his pseudonym Sgah’gahsowáh, a Mohawk name meaning "the witch hawk". Blackbraid's formation was first announced on February 7, 2022. Krieger was by that point a lifelong musician and had previously been involved informally with friends' projects, but Blackbraid is both his first serious project and his first solo one.
