While he works out of Yellowknife these days, electro-blues-rocker (and cartoonist!) Digawolf was born and bred in the community of Behchoko, capital of the Tlicho First Nation, in Canada\u2019s Northwest Territories. His surroundings might be frosty but his songs have a smouldering heat, as well as sly wit and gritty beauty. They often draw on the wisdom his father passed down to him \u2013 but apparently, that never included that bit about discretion being the better part of valour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHigh Arctic\u201d is the title track of Digawolf\u2019s fifth record,<\/strong><\/a> the follow-up to the Juno-nominated Yellowknife<\/em>. The video finds Digawolf, drummer David Dowe, and guitarist Greg Nasogaluak on their way to a gig when challenged to a game of street hockey. They figure their sheer size and old-school rules have the game already won. Pride goeth before a fall…\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
