Singer-songwriter Teagan Littlechief will return to the stage, Sat, Aug. 27 at Carlyle Memorial Hall. The writer of singles “I'll Bring the Party” and Hell Bent and “Heaven Bound”-which both reached number-one on the Saskatchewan Aboriginal Charts-is hosting a fundraising concert in order to raise funds to record another album at Calgary's MCC Recording Studio.
“I'm fundraising to record again in Calgary at MCC,” says the singer who hails from White Bear First Nations. “I'll be singing some new material, some country, some rock and roll. There's something for everybody and I'm really looking forward to seeing people from my home community and performing for them.”
“I've got a new band-Vince Poorman is on drums, Fred Dustyhorn is on bass and Nathan Fisher plays lead guitar,” adds Littlechief. “We're also bringing country singer Orleen Saulteaux to the stage to open the show. She's from Standing Buffalo First Nation and I'm really looking forward to her coming to Carlyle.”
The evening will also feature a concession stand, a cash bar, a 50/50 draw and a silent auction.
Recently, Littlechief made her second appearance at Regina's Mosiac Stadium, once again singing the national anthem as the Saskatchewan Roughriders faced off against the B.C. Lions on July 16.
“It still gave me goosebumps,” she says. “Even though it was the second time. It was nerve-wracking, exciting and a real honour.”
“Wherever I perform and whenever I perform, it's an amazing feeling to know that I have an impact on people. I always set out to do my best and it's always such an incredible feeling to know my performance has touched someone.”
