Jeremy Dutcher, the classically trained Two-Spirit song carrier, composer, activist, and member of Neqotkuk (Tobique First Nation) in Eastern Canada burst upon the music scene in Canada in 2018, winning the prestigious Polaris Music Prize for his debut LP, which saw him performing with archival recordings of his Wolastoq ancestors. His latest, just released on October 6, is called Motewolonuwok (People of great spiritual power), and it continues Dutcher’s exploration of his First Nations roots: celebrating the culture, addressing the endangered language and land rights, and correcting the record. Jeremy and his trio play in-studio. - Caryn Havlik
