Gaënö'

In a day and age where words are often weaponized, an album of instrumentals provides a breath of fresh air.

Show Notes

Mimi O’Bonsawin (Abenaki & Francophone) has been releasing music since 2015. She’s a long time friend and returning guest to Gaënö’. Last year, I had her on to discuss her award winning EP, Elle Danse (2020), an album that was also included on many curated playlists, including Apple Music, Amazon and Spotify. Today, I welcome Mimi back to the show to talk about her latest release, a collection of ethereal instrumentals called Fiddleheads and Ferns (2022).
