Tanya Tagaq (again)


Tanya Tagaq
10 x 8 inches, oil on canvas, 2018
The revelation for me (in music) of 2017 was Tanya Tagaq. She debuts in the top 100 with three tracks. The top one, in which she performs with the Kronos Quartet, comes in at #3. A bit further down the list is Uja and finally, the reason for this painting, a collaboration with Weaves, a Canadian indie band with Jasmyn Burke and Morgan Waters. Burke and Tagaq together do honor to the title of the song: Scream. The Top 100 2017/18 has now ended and a new one just began. I still need about 20 more paintings to have every track illustrated.
