New Constellations
Nationwide tour of Music & Arts
WHO
WE
ARE
A groundbreaking 13-city tour across Canada, bringing together Indigenous and non-Indigenous artists for a unique celebration of music and literary arts. The collaborative initiative was organized by the Basement Revue (co-founded by Jason Collett and Damian Rogers) and Indigenous music platform Revolutions Per Minute (RPM), featuring an impressive roster of established and emerging artists.
Our multifaceted project included not only performances but also a mentorship program for Indigenous youth and a documentary film, creating spaces for collaboration across communities during a significant period of growing recognition for Indigenous artists in Canada’s cultural landscape
