Buffy boosting powwow music to mainstream
Page 10
In 1987, Edmund Bull founded the Red Bull singers following a tradition
handed down from his father and grandfather.
Since then, the powwow group has released countless tapes of its music
and is generally recognized as one of the finest powwow groups on the
continent.
Buffy Sainte-Marie, a Cree born on a small reserve near Regina but
raised in Maine, first gained international notoriety during the 1960s
folk boom and has since been an active proponent of Aboriginal music.
