Upcoming shows
La quête en musique de Beatrice Deer L’auteure-compositrice-interprète Beatrice Deer est née et a grandi au Nunavik, dans le petit village de Quaqtaq. Ses chansons sont un mélange de textes personnels et d’histoires traditionnelles inuites, de rock indépendant, de folk moderne et de chants de gorge. Son 6e et dernier album, Shifting, explore la façon dont l’amour entre dans nos vies, la volonté humaine de survivre et les réalités du deuil. Modèle pour sa communauté, Beatrice Deer puise dans les obstacles qu’elle a surmontés l’inspiration de ses pièces musicales et conférences. « Je veux continuer à utiliser ce que j’ai appris pour aider les autres ». Lauréate du Prism Prize 2021 et ambassadrice d’Apple Music, Beatrice Deer chante en inuktitut, en anglais et en français.
