Combining traditional Inuit throat singing with – often dark – electronic elements and gothic imagery, PIQSIQ (pronounced “pilk-silk”) takes listeners on an unforgettable journey. Now, audiences in Alberta can experience that journey live, as the acclaimed duo is bringing their unique and powerful sound to Sherwood Park’s Festival Place on Oct 15. PIQSIQ collaborators, Kayley Inuksuk Mackay and Tiffany Kuliktana Ayalik, have been travelling across Canada to put on a limited number of shows in support of their 2021 release Live from Christ Church Cathedral.
Kayley Inuksuk Mackay and Tiffany Kuliktana Ayalik joined CKUA’s Lisa Wilton from the road to talk tours, music and the PIQSIQ experience.
