In 1980, Métis Artist Harry Davies released a cassette tape which was sent to an Indigenous Radio Station that included Country covers and a track called The Bannock Song, which is a parody of Dolly Parton’s 1971 hit Coat of Many Colours.

The Parody was an instant hit with Indigenous communities across the north, including CFWE Listeners. To this day, our listeners often request the song during Tuesday and Thursday’s request show.

During a listener concert in Slave Lake on June 13, 2025, host Wally Desjarlais, who first interviewed Davies when it first played on CFWE, had a moment to revisit the song and talk about its impact and how it came to be.
