Description Two First Nations performers come together to share their cultures and inspiration in a special musical collaboration. Leela Gilday’s rich vocals dance across the rhythmic beats of traditional Dene drumming with songs of love and life in the rugged environment and vibrant culture of her home in Canada’s north. Indigenous performer Emily Wurramara from Groote Eylandt shares her stories and experiences with heart and honesty through her original music sung in English and Anindilyakwa.
