ASKO, THE NEW PROJECT FROM MAREK TYLER (nêhiyawak, WAYFINDING), NEW SELF-TITLED LP OUT SEPTEMBER 9, 2024 VIA DINE ALONE RECORDS
ASKO, the new project from Marek Tyler, announced his upcoming, self-titled album, which will be out via Dine Alone this September. Today, he’s sharing another single and video from the upcoming album, “sîsîkwan” honouring family matriarchs.
“When my mom worked on artwork and struggled with a cultural question, she would call my kokum for advice and guidance on contemporary art,” says Tyler. “I have made that call to my mom time and time again. I want to honour our family’s matriarchs, their footwork and fan work. When they enter, I want to play bells, shakers, and rattles for them, honouring them with beats.”
