The Métis are one of Canada’s distinct Indigenous Peoples, with a history, culture and identity shaped across generations in the historic Métis Homeland. Music has long been central to that story, from the fiddle traditions of Red River and the songs of early Métis communities to country, folk, roots and contemporary music. Métis: A Canadian Musical Story brings together recordings from across generations, celebrating the musicians who have carried Métis history, memory, identity and creativity forward while continuing to shape Canadian music in their own distinctive ways.
