Musician Activist. I mix Powwow music with guitar and sing like Hank Williams & Johnny Cash.
Kevin Schofield, aka the Tennessee Cree, was born a few decades ago, as he began playing bass and guitar, and took to playing cover songs, and writing originals, sometimes imitating the late great Johnny Cash.
Today, the residential school survivor hopes to reach a broader audience by way of storytelling, sharing stage and song, and bringing his music to the widest audiences.
Our mission is to foster connection, opportunity, and knowledge-sharing for those who create (Oshichikesiwuk). In doing so, we empower the voices of Mushkegowuk Cree to express the sacred connection between our people, water, land, and all our relations.
We envision a future where the voices of Omushkegowuk creators (Oshichikesiwuk) are empowered and valued, ensuring a legacy of harmony between culture and sustainability that resonates through generations connected to the James Bay Coast (Nanipek).
