In this episode of the Red Man Laughing podcast we have a featured chat with the Drum Keeper, Composer & Lead Singer for Cree Confederation - a powwow group from Frog Lake FN in Alberta. People may have also heard of Dallas as he is also part of an incredible and ground breaking singing duo, Fawn & Dallas. Fawn, of course, is Dallas's wife & better half - and we feature music from their new album "Blessings" (Canyon Records, 2013).
In this episode we talk about everything from the humble begginings of walking to powwows to winning the largest powwows in Indian Country. This is a good chat and a necessary look at the behind the scenes life of a powwow singer and his family - so much work has to happen behind the scenes to be able to have the privilege of being able to help the people with our songs & dance.
