Ribbon Skirt
Ribbon Skirt is a Canadian indie rock duo from Montreal, Quebec, consisting of vocalist and guitarist Tashiina Buswa and multi-instrumentalist Billy Riley.[1] They are most noted for their second album Bite Down, which was longlisted for the 2025 Polaris Music Prize.[2]
Initially known as Love Language, the duo released two EPs under that name before adopting the name Ribbon Skirt in reference to Buswa's Anishinaabe heritage.[3] Bite Down, their full-length debut, was released in April 2025 on Mint Records.[4]
