Alaskan artists, bands and activity

  • Byron Nicholai's new album, Ayagnera, was released in March. The songs, in Yugtun, are a mash up of the Toksook Bay artist's emotions and his varied interest in different kinds of mix. He says the Yup'ik drum and traditional dancing helped inspire the album.
  • After a two year postponement due to COVID-19, the Cama-i Dance Festival returned to Bethel. Community members from across the state gathered to celebrate the return of yuraq.
