Cliff Cardinal- Cree/Metis, son of legendary actor/activist Tantoo Cardinal was born on the Pine Ridge Reservation. Growing up mostly in Ontario he was drawn to the theatre at a young age. Known for his “black humor and compassionate poeticism” he’s won multiple awards for his solo theatre productions. His one man show, Huff, has been performed over 200 times. The Guardian Observer has called that production a “hard hitting tour de force.” Known for his black humor and compassionate poeticism, he combines his signature wit and catchy riffs with his ban, The Sky-Larks. This week, Cliff joins me to discuss the bands latest release, Suicidal Valentine (October 2022). Enjoy!
