3x JUNO nominees and Billboard chart-toppers Sultans of String are excited to announce the Burlington Premiere of Walking Through The Fire-Visual Album. This film is a visually stunning and transformative blend of interviews and music video that brings the magic of collaboration to the screen, with award-winning First Nations, Métis, and Inuit artists from across Turtle Island working together with Sultans of String to create something extraordinary. Prepare to be absorbed by the captivating synergy and power of Walking Through the Fire as it takes you on a journey where cultures collide, boundaries dissolve, and the universal language of music unites us all. From Métis fiddling to an East Coast Kitchen Party, rumba to rock, to the drumming of the Pacific Northwest, experience the beauty and diversity of music from Turtle Island with Elder and poet Dr. Duke Redbird, the Métis Fiddler Quartet, Ojibwe/Finnish Singer-Songwriter Marc Meriläinen (Nadjiwan), Coast Tsm’syen Singer Shannon Thunderbird, The North Sound from the Prairies, Blues singer Crystal Shawanda, Heavy-Wood guitarist Don Ross, Northern Cree pow wow group, Dene singer-songwriter Leela Gilday, Inuit Throat Singers and more, in this musical film experience unlike any other. The Burlington Premiere will feature opening remarks with Burlington filmmaker and Sultans of String producer/bandleader Chris McKhool, as well as a Q&A with McKhool and Indigenous elder/Walking Through The Fire collaborator Shannon Thunderbird after the film. McKhool is the newest Inductee of the The Burlington Performing Arts Centre’s Hall of Fame. His film with Sultans of String won “Best Musical Film” at the Cannes World Film Festival for their previous documentary The Refuge Project, that aired in BPAC last year. McKhool is an artistic leader that has strengthened Burlington’s cultural landscape. Sultans of String would like to acknowledge funding support from non-Indigenous streams of the Ontario Arts Council, an agency of the Government of Ontario, and Canada Council for the Arts.
