About this concert
Highly original, L-E-V's inventive duo Sharon Eyal and Gai Behar team up with techno trailblazer DJ Ori Lichtik to create a raw, visceral new work inspired by slam poet Neil Hilborn's sensational text OCD. Harking back to the 90s club scene with its pulsing, rhythmic groove and striking contrasts in light and shadow, this hypnotic, obsessive compulsive piece looks at love and the emotional black holes that lurk in its shadows. L-E-V, le singulier et inventif duo formé de Sharon Eyal et Gai Behar, s'associe au pionnier de la techno DJ Ori Lichtik pour créer une nouvelle pièce fougueuse et charnelle inspirée du brillant poème OCD du slameur Neil Hilborn. Évoquant la scène club des années 1990 avec ses rythmes pulsés et ses saisissants jeux d'ombre et de lumière, cette oeuvre hypnotique, obsessionnelle et compulsive se penche sur l'amour et sur les trous noirs émotionnels qu'il laisse dans son sillage.

"ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL LIVE PERFORMERS IN THIS COUNTRY" - Tom Power, CBC q
"A MESMERIZING ALT-ELECTRONIC POP SINGER WHO TELLS IT LIKE IT IS" - Billboard Magazine
“A CROSS-CULTURAL MOSAIC OF ELECTRONICA, INDIGENOUS AND ROCK SONIC TEXTURES, BUILDING UP TO CATHARTIC CHORUSES HELD FIRM THROUGHOUT BY iskwē’ PENETRATING VOICE.” - Ride The Tempo
acākosīk is both a new album and an immersive live experience where rock-show meets the unexpected.
iskwē creates a bold and adventurous sound of electronic and alternative rock, with a mesmerizing live experience that is intense, powerful, emotional, intimate and yet vast.
Come in as individuals.
Walk out as a community.
With a five-piece alt-electro band, choreographed dancers, costumes, visual projections and soundscapes, the show is meant to be an immersive experience. “I want my audience to enter into a space that is open and inclusive for everyone. A space where we come together in a safe and thoughtful way. So we all walk away feeling good,” says iskwē.
iskwē | ᐃᐢᑫᐧᐤ is among many other things, a Juno Award winning artist – a creator and communicator of music and of movement, of pictures, poetry and prose. And through it all, she’s a teller of stories that have impacted our past and will inform our future. acākosīk | ᐊᒐᑯᓯᐠ is the culmination of her creation and collaboration to this point. It’s a collection of seven sonic explorations that not only blur lines between sources and styles, but also between the actual and the ideal, the real and imagined.
Building on the foundation of potent, cross-cultural electro-pop established on her self-titled 2013 debut and the Juno-nominated, Polaris Music Prize Long-Listed 2017 follow-up The Fight Within, acākosīk incorporates more intense and urgent tinges of alternative, post-rock, and even industrial. The cohesive-yet-combustible result tips a cap to modern innovators like Florence + The Machine and FKA twigs while simultaneously borrowing sounds accumulated over centuries by iskwē’s cree and Métis ancestors.
