In this episode of Backroads Bill, we sit down with Juno-nominated artist Adrian Sutherland to explore how his music is deeply rooted in his life in Attawapiskat and his culture.
From early influences at home to performing on national stages, Adrian shares how his sound has evolved while staying true to where he comes from.
We also dive into his new book The Work of Our Hands, and how storytelling, music, and culture all connect.
Adrian opens up about life in the North, the realities of remote communities, and why he continues to create from a place that means so much to him.
