Spirit Singers
Cyndi Pallen started Spirit Singers in 2000, through a program called Aboriginal Healing Foundation. She keeps the group together and has composed songs to share. The singers have been together with varying age groups throughout the years. They are grateful for the revitalization of their culture through songs.
Beach Crashers
The Beach Crashers is a group of unique musicians who will inspire you with the same warmth as the fire that created them. The sincerity in their voices and instruments blend like a vivid and colourful horizon. At the summer solstice event, they will play a set of francophone music with some nostalgic songs!
DJ Elm
Raised in Montreal, DJ Elm brings energy to the dance floor with all kinds of beats, a love for vocal samples, and surprising classics.
This event is partly funded by qathet Art!
