KELLY FRASER

Originally from Sanikiluaq, Nunavut, Kelly has performed countless concerts across Canada, especially the Arctic (Nunavut and Nunavik), where she is extremely well-known.

Like many other Inuit, Kelly has been through many personal struggles, ranging from substance abuse, the loss of her father and others to suicide, to name only a few. Kelly uses her pain as inspiration to make art that can positively impact other native youths. She seeks to spread her messages of joy, healing, and cultural pride through a blend of traditional Inuit music and modern production.

Her new album is influenced by contemporary pop, EDM, and hip-hop. Kelly sings and raps in both English and Inuktitut, seamlessly blending the two languages with her powerful, insightful, and politically-relevant lyrics. Her goal is to make the music speak to both Inuit and Qallunaat (“southerners”).

Besides her busy schedule as a recording and performing artist, Kelly teaches songwriting, does motivational speaking, and helps organize Nunavut Hitmakerz, a project which aims to give underprivileged youth opportunities to learn creative expression and technical skills. She is also currently completing her degree in Native Studies at NVIT in British Columbia.

EINARINDRA

einarIndra is an electronic musician from Iceland who mixes smooth electronics with his distinct vocal manipulation. At its core let’s call it electronic music, but with that certain singer/songwriter feel to it, einarIndra’s sound is best described as electronic soul music. His big retro synth sound and high pitch vocals are characteristic over the smooth textures of pads and futuristic beats. einarIndra’s first album was released on the highly acclaimed Icelandic electronic label Möller Records in 2014. Since then he has been apparent in the Icelandic music scene with a growing attention worldwide.
