From Native Trailblazers ShowLeela Gilday is an award winning musical artist that was born and raised in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, in Canada. According to Leela, “I have come to appreciate the heartbeat of life, and how that resonates through our experiences. My songwriting reflects all those things. I love to sing- I feel like the voice is a human birthright and it should be used often-I think people respond to my voice the way they respond to any instrument- with powerful feelings. I am an independent Dene artist from the north.” --- On tonight’s show we will listen to some music from her latest new full-length album "Calling All Warriors".
