Built on emotion-stirring storytelling and unmistakable vocal harmonies accompanied by a century-old instrument, Burnstick, a husband and wife Folk duo, are intent on creating music that inspires listeners to feel. The Manitoba based Indigenous duo features Nadia and Jason Burnstick, esteemed independent artists who united over a decade ago to create cinematic Folk music using their trademark vocal pairing, and Jason's mastery of the lap slide Weissenborn guitar. Five years after their nationally acclaimed debut album, "Kîyânaw,” Burnstick's latest album "Made of Sin”, has netted them all the awards and nominations - from Junos, Canadian Folk Music Awards to Western Canadian Music Awards. Backed by their drummer, Daniel Roy, Nadia and Jason perform deeply resonant music that strikes a chord with audiences. With thought-provoking lyrics and engaging stories, they leave listeners reflecting on their own experiences, feelings, and memories.
