    Cris Derksen, Laura Ortman, and Kristi Lane Sinclair in concert
    9:00 pm - 11:30 pm
    Location: concert
    Description: Three solos sets accompanied by video projection. A rising star on the Canadian classical/jazz/folk/pop/electronica/what have you scenes, cellist Cris Derksen (North Tall Cree) is known for captivating solo performances building layers of sound into often surprisingly slamming dance music. Her music braids the traditional and contemporary in multiple dimensions, weaving her traditional classical training with her aboriginal ancestry with new school electronics, creating genre defying music. Laura Ortman (White Mountain Apache) plays violin, Apache violin, piano, electric guitar and megaphone. She was a member of the genre-bending bands Stars Like Fleas and The Dust Dive. Her solo album Someday We’ll Be Together was named RPM: Indigenous Music Culture’s “10 Most Influential Indigenous Album’s of 2011” and her video for I Lost My Shadow (dir. by Nanobah Becker) won “Best Music Video” at imagineNative 2011. Canadian Folk Award nominee, singer/songwriter Kristi Lane Sinclair (Haida/Cree) was raised on grunge and classical guitar in the backwaters of British Columbia. Kristi’s debut album, ‘I Love You’ melds hard edged smokey vocals, doleful cello and whimsical guitar lines.
