AYSANABEE
Aysanabee is an Oji-Cree singer songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist who was first recognized performing for the Indigenous Music Awards emerging artist series in 2020. His songs and storytelling landed him a part in the Giiwewizh documentary series featuring 16 Indigneous artists from across Turtle Island. The series was directed by Sarain Fox and hosted by the International Indigenous Music Summit.
He has since signed with Ishkode Records, one of the first Indigenous owned labels in the country and has played several major Canadian music festivals and opened for notable acts.
He has released two singles with Ishkode and is currently working on his debut album with producer Hill Kourkoutis, the first woman to ever be never nominated for recording engineer of the year at the Junos.
Aysanabee performs at 2pm on Sunday, May 28th as part of the Mayworks Closing Celebration at Dentonia Park.
