Born October 26, 1946 in Winnipeg, Manitoba,[1] he was a member of the Roseau River Anishinabe First Nation.[1] At the age of four he was adopted by a Mennonite family in Steinbach.[1] He began singing in church choirs,[1] and joined the Nebraska-based Boystown Concert Choir after moving to the United States at age 15.[1] In the late 1960s and 1970s, he performed with several rock and rhythm and blues bands in Washington, DC and New York City, including a stint in Roy Buchanan's band.[2] He returned to Winnipeg in 1973.[1] Inspired by the contemporaneous American Indian Movement,[1] he began performing as a singer-songwriter, adopting his great-grandfather's name.[1] His first recording, Native Country in 1975, featured contributions from Bruce Cockburn.[3] He toured extensively across Canada, performing shows in clubs and university campuses and on the folk festival circuit.[1] In the early 1980s, he collaborated with Don Marks and Bill Britain on the First Nations musical play InDEO, in which he starred.[1] He and Marks later cofounded Native Multimedia Productions, a television production company which created the First Nations current affairs program Full Circle, later retitled First Nations Magazine, for CKND-TV, and the 1989 television special Indian Time for CTV.[1] He was the host of the former program, and was one of the performers in the latter.[4] He was also a correspondent on First Nations issues for CTV's Canada AM.[5] In 1991, he hosted a three-part documentary series for CBC Radio on First Nations music.[6] He has also worked in aboriginal programming and policy development for TVOntario,[5] and as director of education for the Canada Arts Foundation.[7] He later served as chair of the Juno Awards committee administering the Juno Award for Aboriginal Album of the Year,[2] and raised funds for an aboriginal cultural centre in Winnipeg.[2] His song "Treaty Rights" was adopted as an anthem of the 2007 Aboriginal Day of Action.[8] In 2012, he suffered a stroke which left him with partial paralysis.[3] Marks organized a fundraising concert to assist him with medical and living expenses, which featured Eagle & Hawk, Ray St. Germain, Mark Nabess, Dustin Harder, Jesse Green and Don Amero.[3] "Silver River", a track he recorded in collaboration with poet Duke Redbird for his 1975 release Native Country,[9] is featured on the 2014 compilation album Native North America, Vol. 1.[10] Albums
