Celebrate the art of listening
Recognized as being one of Canada’s most diverse and adventurous musical events, the Open Ears Festival of Music and Sound is an innovative event which celebrates the act of listening.
…like a dream come true for musicians on the forward fringe of the art, and for people normally frightened of same. No more cloistering in concert halls; no preset definitions of what ‘real’ music is.
— Robert Everett-Green, The Globe and Mail
with Jean Martin and Jesse Zubot

When Tanya Tagaq Gillis' music fills your ears—either in person or on her
new CD Auk—she is genuinely one of those rare artists whose sounds and
styles are truly groundbreaking. 'Inuit throat singer' is one part of her sonic quotient.
So are descriptions like 'orchestral' 'hip-hop-infused' and 'primal', but these words are not usually
used collectively. In the case of Tagaq, however—especially
on her sophomore disc Auk—they are.
