Episode Description from the Publisher

You can watch this epsiode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/3bwPpBALIQcBeatrice Deer is an award-winning Inuk and Mohawk singer-songwriter, designer, and seamstress who grew up in the tiny village of Quaqtaq, Nunavik, and moved to Montreal in her twenties. She calls her sound "Inuindie," a mix of indie rock, folk, and throat singing, sung mostly in Inuktitut with flashes of English and French. She's also been sewing her own clothes since she was 13, and in 2023 her work was seen around the world when Governor General Mary Simon wore an annuraaq Beatrice made for her to the coronation of King Charles III.It's a conversation about culture, craft, and what it means to carry stories forward, whether in a song or a garment.Find Beatrice:๐ŸŒ Website: https://beatricedeerband.com ๐Ÿ“ท Instagram: https://instagram.com/beatricedeerband ๐ŸŽต Bandcamp: https://beatricedeer.bandcamp.comA HandBuilt Life is brought to you by Closet Core Studio.๐ŸŒ Website: https://closetcorepatterns.com ๐Ÿ“ท Instagram: https://instagram.com/closetcorepatterns ๐Ÿ“บ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdb_3OevoozegQB6C5meFjQ
