The full-length feature version (90 minutes) will be broadcast at a
later date. |
'Road
to Baleya' is a feature documentary film in which Canadian
and Malian musicians come together on an journey of musical collaboration
and friendship in Mali, West Africa. Produced by award winning Canadian
filmmaker Bay Weyman (Spirits of Havana), it follows the interactions
between Malian griot Mansa
Sissoko and Canadian musicians Lewis Melville, Dave
Clark, Dale Morningstar and Tannis Slimmon as they travel to Mansa’s
home village of Baleya. The film explores themes of music as a path
to social and economic development, and intersects with the very
personal toll exacted by malaria in one of the poorest countries
in the world. |

| How
Steve describes Tannis: She's one of my favourite singers,
and in that respect, I'm not unique. She was awarded last year's Golden
Quill for songwriting at the 2008 Porcupine Awards. I've followed her career
for the past 20 years, during her time with The Bird Sisters, performing
with John Charlton, doing beautiful backup vocals on so many peoples' albums,
and the release of her two stellar CDs: Oak Lake and Lucky Blue. At this
early date, all I can say is that it is entirely possible for her to bring
in a mighty fine arsenal of people to back her up.
Suprise guests turned out to be: Lewis
Melville , Jah Youssouf and
Abdoubaye Kone who will all be touring this summer with The Woodchoppers
Association. |

The River Run's program read "Tannis has a special connection with
River Run Centre that goes back before the theatre opened its doors.
During the later stages of construction, when River Run's Main Stage
was being outfitted with a sound system, we asked Tannis to come
down and help us with our sound testing. She sang into each of our
different microphones (lapel type, wireless and other styles), while
a crew of "ears" walked around into every seat and level of the hall
to assess the sound quality. You could say she was our first performer.
Our technicians certainly had a glorious private concert that day."

Routes Concert Series
Tannis is thrilled to be touring back in the area where she was born and raised.
Many of the towns and cities on route are dear to her, including her home town
of Oak Lake, Brandon where her mom and numerous relatives now live, Onanole which
is a wee town near Clear Lake where she worked as a teenage, Neepawa where her
dad worked in the 1930's and the home of Margaret Lawrence, and of course Winnipeg
where she lived for 4 sweet years before moving to Guelph.
Tannis
will be joined by fab musician Lewis Melville.
"Home Routes is
about world-class musicians, known and unknown alike, performing complete concerts
in the comfortable intimacy of private homes and other non-traditional spaces.
They're fun to attend, fun to present, and fun to play. Just imagine your living
room as a concert hall with 25-40 of your closest friends and their closest friends
gathered for an evening of great music. Imagine great artists delivering the
same show in your living room that they would present on the Main Stage of a
folk festival or a concert hall." |

playing with their respective bands.
In those early years, Tannis helped organize the festival with a dedicated group
of folks.
In
some shape or form, she has performed at possibly every Hillside festival,
either in one of many bands she's been part of, as a member of other people's
bands or as a workshop co-leader. |
