Native Playlist: PIQSIQ, Blaine Bailey, and LOV
Throat-singing Inuit sisters Tiffany Ayalik and Inuksuk Mackay, performing as PIQSIQ, have released their sixth album, offering a soundtrack to the traditional stories they grew up with in Canada. “Legends” blends PIQSIQ’s cultural improvisational technique with sophisticated studio production.

First Nations Cree singer LOV is on tour, propelled by the success of the video releases for the singles, “Matriarch” and “Mama”. Her upbeat soulful, rhythmic style invokes Amy Winehouse, but LOV has a message all her own drawn from her roots on her Treaty Six Reserve in Saskatchewan.

Country crooner Blaine Bailey barely blinked after getting eliminated from the musical competition reality show, “The Road”. He hit the road with his own tour singing songs from his album, “Indian Country”, with a classic sound built around lyrics full of Native pride.
