Rey is a Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation artist who expresses their gratitude through creativity and working with their hands.

They work with Dentalium Shells, beads, textiles and other natural mediums from the land. Having not grown up around their culture, reconnecting with their identity through art has been a way to heal and innerstand their purpose. Grateful for the exchange of knowledge and skills, they continue to expand their artistic practices and grow as a being and artist.

Born into the well-respected Wood family, Fawn’s singing reflects her Cree and Salish tribal lineage. At an early age Fawn would sing her heart out at pow wows alongside her parents and in 2006, she became the first female to win the Hand Drum contest at the Gathering of Nations Pow Wow. Since then, Fawn has released three award winning albums and recently earned a JUNO Award in the Traditional Indigenous Artist or Group of the Year category for her album kakike.

Aqqalu Berthelsen, also known as Uyarakq, was born in Nuuk, Greenland in the mid 80s. He is a self taught music producer/composer and DJ with a background in metal music.
Growing up in Uummannaq, Northern Greenland and Nuuk, the capital, has played a large role in shaping him to be a versatile musician between two worlds. He is currently doing a lot of work in the Indigenous circumpolar hip hop and rap scene with a foot in two continents, the North American arctic and the European arctic.
He won a Greenlandic Koda Award in 2015 for his solo album Raatiu Nukik (2014) and got nominated for Nordic Councils Music Prize in 2016 for the collaborative work Kunngiitsuuffik (2015) alongside the Greenlandic rapper Peand-eL.
He is now living in Inari, Northern Finland/Sápmi.
