Métis Style Videos
The tunes in this collection are from the Métis tradition. Métis is the french word for mixed blood. The tunes can be quite crooked, which means they don't follow the standard meter that we might be used to. Not all of these tunes are crooked though. This music has a lot of drive and is built to make you tap your toes and make you want to dance.
