3-time Juno Award Winners- Bear Witness and Tim “2oolman” Hill of The Halluci Nation are reflecting on the evolution of their music and mission.
The Halluci Nation, took its name from a phrase coined by John Trudell, to describe the vast global community of people who remember at their core, what it means to be human.
The Halluci Nation maintains focus on what they feel they can impact most: how Indigenous people are seen.
Through groundbreaking stage shows and ever-changing visuals, Bear Witness and 2oolman are working to create media that reflects the modern day Indigenous identity.
They see themselves simply as contributors to a necessary conversation around a subtle and complex representation of the contemporary Indigenous experience.
Darrell Stranger spoke with them to talk about their music and how their culture impacts the beats and the visuals at shows.
The Halluci Nation will be playing shows in Calgary November 15 at Commenwealth and November 16 at The Starlite Room in Edmonton.
