Beat of the drum

Beat of the drum

DVD 1997

The drum is the heartbeat of Mother Earth; to beat the drum is to match the heartbeat. As we sing our songs to the drum we "talk to the spirits". From rock and roll to electronic to traditional music, this is an upbeat, fast-paced program as four "high profile" Canadian First Nations musical performers and songwriters are profiled.
