NOUVEAU GRIOT
by Tanya Evanson (Frontenac House 2018)
Launch Nov.26 2018 Calgary Library, Calgary AB
Nouveau Griot is
the result of 20 years on stage and in studio. It is the text from four
spoken word audio recordings made between 2004-2016: Invisible World, The Memorists, Language for Gods and ZENSHIP. This
work is in the continuum of the griot, which is a french African word
meaning “poet, singer and traveling musician to whom supernatural
powers are often attributed.”
