Summary

Largely unknown on the folk scene in the US, Willie Dunn is an important figure in framing the stories of native Canadians in songs, films, and art. With a rich voice, stong melodies and subtle arrangement, his music brings to light an overlooked chapter in the history of North America.

For this episode we're joined by musician and author Kelly Mulhollan of the duo Still on the Hill.
