EP 370 | Juno Winner Aysanabee heads west on The Way We're Born Tour

Juno Winner Aysanabee headlines his first national tour. Two-time JUNO Award-winning Oji-Cree artist Aysanabee has been riding a powerful wave for over three years, and this fall he's bringing it coast to coast. Following the release of his June release album Edge Of The Earth on Ishkōdé Records, Aysanabee kicks off The Way We're Born Tour on November 6 in Edmonton, with more than 20 dates across Alberta, BC, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec, and Ontario. Tour Dates: www.aysanabee.com/tour Aysanabee once again announced that each show will feature local Indigenous opening artists.
"I had the best time featuring and connecting with local Indigenous artists on the first leg of my headlining tour this past winter, and I couldn't wait to do it again for this next run." - "Every song on this record offers a window into very transitional moments in my life. Over the last few years I was faced with decisions that often took me inwards and made me question the core of my creativity, 'What drives me to make art and how much would I be willing to sacrifice for it?' I mulled over calling the record 'Reflections" 'or 'Patterns,' but landed on Edge of the Earth, because oftentimes these decisions would take me to the edge of an unknown and leave me wondering if I was ready to take a leap of faith. I can't say I was ready , but I can tell you how it felt, and it is in these songs." My thanks to journalist Lynn Saxburg for taking all of us through the highs and lows of Aysanabee's early childhood and adult life.
