WITH SPECIAL GUEST… Ila Barker
 
With soulful voice and lyrics that wash like waves over the minds and hearts of audiences, singer-songwriter Ila Barker is a force to be reckoned with. This folk-soul artist of Anishinaabe and settler heritage, takes listeners on an introspective journey, inviting them to connect deeply with their own emotions. Her latest release Fool Under Water (2022) is an honour song to her metamorphosis into the powerhouse she is today, and a promise that the tide will turn. www.ilabarker.com
