Nadjiwan is an indigenous Canadian musician, now based out of Toronto, but originally from Norther Ontario. North of Superior is a fine indie rock collection of songs centred around Thunder Bay. I heard one of them played on CBC Radio recently and was intrigued enough to check out the album. I enjoyed it and hope you will too.
The Great Sea is, in many ways, a love letter to northern Ontario’s awe-inspiring landscape and its unique culture. Meriläinen offered a taste of it with his 2022 single “Land Of Skoden” (also included on The Great Sea), which set the stage for a full-on recording trip last summer. Utilizing his usual band—guitarist Jean-Paul De Roover, bassist Adam Gomori and drummer Alex Mine—along with a mobile recording studio, they set up at the Chippewa Park Pavilion near Fort William First Nation, with a local company, Apple Wagon Films, also on hand to document the entire recording process. Other parts were later overdubbed in Toronto, with notable contributions from members of Sultans Of String.
