The Red Ride Tour Rides Again
/
Four years ago, Cris Derksen and Kristi Lane Sinclair toured across Canada and dubbed it the "Red Ride Tour." The "two-er" followed the next year, and now they've established a yearly event - Red Ride 4-Way is crossing Turtle Island next month and picking up lots of other artists on the way.
Electro-cellist Cris Derksen and acoustic-grunge singersongwriter Kristi Lane Sinclair are long time friends and collaborators. For last year's Red Ride they added the eclectic violinist Laura Ortman to the line-up. This time, they'll be joined by different artists in different cities as they make there way from West to East Coast, including Jasmine Netsena, Iskwé, George Leach, Nick Sherman, Jennifer Kreisberg and once again Laura Ortman.
It's practically a touring festival of some of the best Indigenous artists we all know and love. Get started with this Red Ride 4-Way playlist and see all tour dates below.
