This year’s performers (locally) are Tenille Townes and Aysanbee. Tenille Townes (Grand Prairie, Alberta) had her debut album named Country Album of the Year at the 50th JUNO Awards and Album of the Year at the 2021 Canadian Country Music Awards. Townes also earned her third consecutive Female Vocalist of the Year trophy.

Aysanbee is Oji-Cree and from the Sucker Clan of the Sandy Lake First Nation. Aysanabee is a singer-songwriter who uses folk, soul and alt-pop to tell stories about his life and reconnecting with his roots. His music is solemn and soaring, backed by a swirling blend of indie, soul and electronic soundscapes, mournful saxophone and pulse-quickening finger-picking. Currently readying his debut album, he was the first artist signed to the new Indigenous-owned Ishkode Records.
