Now, those unfamiliar with Ukrainian dance may be thinking to yourself just how do you fill that space in front of the main stage and get your groove going, anyway? Thankfully, the festival has brought in a bountiful bevy of inspiration in the form of nearly a dozen dance troupes to show you how it’s done! All you have to do is be amazed and maybe try and keep up.
Ian Campeau’s Higher Calling
A year ago Ian Campeau was on a high. A Tribe Called Red, the group he co-founded, was attracting more mainstream attention than ever for their acclaimed electric pow-wow beats, a powerful mix of First Nations rhythms and electronica.
