Marie Clements’ acclaimed National Film Board of Canada musical documentary The Road Forward has spawned a single, “Indian Man,” now available on iTunes, Apple Music, YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music or wherever you find your music. “Indian Man” is the opening story-song from the film, being released as a single due to popular demand following screenings at film festivals and in communities, as part of the NFB’s Aabiziingwashi (#WideAwake) screening tour. Written by Clements, this Indigenous blues rock song was composed and arranged by award-winning recording Métis singer-songwriter Wayne Lavallee. It is performed by Wayne Lavallee, Jeremy James Lavallee, Murray Porter, Russell Wallace, Latash-Maurice Nahanee, Ostwelve/Ronnie Dean Harris and the late Leonard George. The musicians are Wayne Lavallee (guitar), Marie-Josée Dandaneau (bass) and Richard E. Brown a.k.a. RB (drums). Digitally re-mastered, the song was originally recorded at Bryan Adams’ Warehouse Studio in Vancouver. It is produced by Marie Clements and Wayne Lavallee, and executive produced by the NFB.
