EAGLE FLIGHT SINGERS 🇨🇦

Eagle Flight Singers is a professional First Nations group based here in London, but with an extensive travel history in the Great Lakes region and beyond. The ensemble consists of fathers, sons, and close friends of Plains Cree, Ojibway, and Haudenaosaunee descent. Eagle Flight Singers performs in what’s known as the “Straight Northern Original” powwow style, which originated in the Western states and provinces.

Their performances are meant to invoke the spirit of the listener, believing  that feelings of elation are medicine for the mind, body and soul. While powwow singing is derived from ancient ceremonial practices, after decades of gift-giving and sharing, it has evolved into more of an inter-tribal ritual spread across Turtle Island. 

The troupe performs in the name of positive spiritual uplift: origin stories, dance exhibitions and audience participation are a vital part of its exhilarating, high-energy shows.
