About this concert
Award-winning First Nations Métis and Inuit artists performing with JUNO Award nominees Sultans of String WALKING THROUGH THE FIRE is a musical multimedia event unlike any other! In support of the Gord Downie / Chanie Wenjack Fund.
This performance brings the magic of collaboration to the stage with award-winning First Nations Métis and Inuit artists from across Turtle Island / Canada joined by BILLBOARD charting 3x JUNO Award nominees and 3x CFMA winners Sultans of String!
From Métis fiddling to an East Coast Kitchen Party from Rumba to Rock to the drumming of the Pacific Northwest experience the beauty and diversity of musicians onstage with Alyssa Delbaere-Sawchuk of the Métis Fiddler Quartet Ojibwe/Finnish Singer-Songwriter Marc Meriläinen (with guest singer Din of F-105) and Coast Tsm’syen Elder and Singer-Songwriter Shannon Thunderbird as well as virtual guests on the big screen including Dr. Duke Redbird the Northern Cree Pow Wow group and more!
The songs beautifully reveal the depths of contemporary Indigenous experience and music expressed in the spirit of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s 94 Calls to Action and Final Report that asks that Indigenous and non-Indigenous people work together as an opportunity to show a path forward.
