The Launch: Artists

The celebrations included good food and most importantly live performances, poetry readings, short film screenings and storytelling.

Here is some information on three of the many performers who shared their talents that evening:

Emcee N3mo

“My Name is Nimo John Awa. I’m originally from Pond Inlet, Nunavut however I grew up in Iqaluit, Nunavut with different people, the different people I grew up with made me what I am today.
I don’t need to talk about the bad but I give my dad, who I was with from 11 to 17, props for the good. My music is hip hop rap, but I’m not a gangster. I can’t lie, I’ve written gangster stuff but thats behind me now. What I go for now is positive messages to my people and anyone who listens. I write positive lyrics so that people change thier ways today. I had a hard life and my music helps me get through so I hope that other people who listen can get through thier hard life through my message. My influences are Eminem and Tupac becouse they have strong and positive messages but these influences are nothing compared to my life experience.”

Emcee N3mo came to the launch as part of Young Artist Warriors. Here is a link to a live performance given by Emcee N3mo and Chorus Fly as part of their work with Young Artist Warriors: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju00Vc1bejY

Vincent Isaac

Vincent Isaac’s performance of several traditional songs at the launch was a great gift to the celebration.

Here is his artist bio:

“Vincent Isaac is a Mi’gmaq Native from the Listuguj reservation in the Gaspé region of Quebec, who uses his voice and traditional songs to heal.

Vincent is from the wolf clan, and is also known by his indian name Grey Wolf.

He shares songs, stories, and words from the elders and people he has met.”

Sapo

“with her songs… your average neurotic chameleon here only wishes to take you for a ride… despues de cinco años de viaje… y algunos mas de sedentarismo… Sapo croit mieux saisir sa citation préférée: “on ne voyage jamais qu’en soi-même” und von alles was sie probieren hat (gedicht, theater, zeichnung, photo, film), music is the only one that can take her home in a flash! and so now you know the whole story.” – From myspace.com/sapoooo

The band consists of:

Sapo – guitar, accordion, piano, vocals
Dominic Comtois – percussions, glockenspiel, vocals
Jake Charkey – cello, vocals
Eli Richards – trombone, banjo

  4. i just wish to say as somebody who did this prior to television can be a very crucial part of your lifestyle because it enlightens you with information about the world. Yes, there are things on Tv which are not really uplifting, but you will find also issues around the tv that can be educational and informational. Thatbeing mentioned, finding the correct Tv provider for you personally is definitely significant due to the fact it could mean the difference among getting specific channels and obtaining the right type of reception that fits your lifestyle.
