Great Performances this Weekend at Canada's Northern House

 

Swing by Canada's Northern House for some live music and try out some drumming. Canada's Northern House is alive with activity for the Paralympic Games and this weekend provides plenty of great performances on our main stage.

Highlights of performances include appearances by Dana Sipos and Digawolf.

Sipos is described as a "lyrical satirical poet," She presents a compelling sound likened to the folk minstrels of yesteryear. She's part politics, part poetry, part hip, part pop, with a dash of blues, hints of soul and a whole lot of heart.

Diga is a Tlicho (Dogrib) word meaning wolf. Digawolf (Jesse James Gon) is originally from the Tlicho community of Behchoko, Northwest Territories. He is a passionate guitarist who plays and sings with great respect for the land, the Tlicho culture and the elders. Digawolf was the winner of the 2005 Canadian Aboriginal Music Award for Best Male Artist and is nominated again this year for album of the year.

And remember, Canada's Northern House stays open until April 18. You can still visit us seven day week between 10am and 5pm.
