Red River Rambler is a Métis composer and storyteller. While rooted in deep respect for the Métis fiddle tradition, his compositions blend history, culture, and contemporary Métis experiences into vivid musical narratives. As a citizen of the Manitoba Métis Federation, he is dedicated to preserving and sharing the true story of the Métis as a distinct Indigenous nation.

His debut album Métis Fiddle Music (2020) features arrangements of traditional fiddle tunes, including banjo renditions of classics such as “Louis Riel Reel” and “Wigwam Polka.” In 2021, he collaborated with Métis poet Katherena Vermette and Historica Canada to produce a short documentary about Pierre Falcon, a historical Métis poet, songwriter, and ancestor. His instrumental arrangement of Falcon’s song Chanson De Le Grenouillere can be heard throughout the documentary, a song that details the events of the Battle of Seven Oaks.

His second album, Reverie (2023), earned a Juno nomination for Traditional Indigenous Artist of the Year at the 2024 Juno Awards. Featuring original compositions, Reverie tells stories through immersive soundscapes inspired by Métis history, culture, and his own lived experience. In live performances, Red River Rambler collaborates with musicians across Canada and interweaves instrumental compositions with storytelling, creating an experience that both entertains and enlightens audiences.

His third album titled Remember Red River (2026) released on Monday October 12th. The record features original compositions in the style of traditional Métis fiddle tunes, performed by Métis fiddler Michael Audette. The record symbolizes Métis identity being born from and intrinsically linked to the Red River Métis homeland. Each fiddle tune represents a memory of Métis identity and establishes a path to understanding the true identity of the Métis people.
