Morgan Toney, the Mi’kmaq Fiddler from both We’koma’q First Nation & Wagmatcook First Nation, is teaming up with Producer Keith Mullins to make an album for Morgan Toney.
One of the songs on the album is the “Ko’jua”. This modern arrangement has caught the attention of CBC, CTV, Cape Breton Post, and various radio stations to as far as Erin, Ontario.
This Music Video was shot in the Mi’kmaq Community of Eskasoni First Nation, on Goat Island.
Morgan: We would like to thank the staff on Goat Island for making us feel at home during the shoot! Amazing trail, and an amazing scenery! Goat Island is a must-see.
