Iskwē – CAPITOL SEASON

Adult $40
30 and Under $36

Singer-songwriter and activist iskwē (pronounced iss-kway) is thrilled to announce her 2023 Fall Canadian Tour including stops across the country from BC to Quebec with more to be announced. The tour is in support of her exciting new music, including the top 30 alternative radio single “I Get High” featuring Nina Hagen. Praised by CBC Music for its ability to “transport listeners to a new reality, to open them to new possibilities, and in that, iskwē’s quest for escapism,” the eccentric and eerie track reminds listeners the importance of supporting each other through the challenges we experience in life.

“I CANNOT WAIT to bring this new music to the stage! It has been almost 5 years since I have seen some of these places. I am looking forward to reconnecting with my fans across the country and meeting lots of new folks,” shares iskwē. “This new music is like nothing I’ve ever done before…and recreating it for these live performances has been so much fun. I hope everyone is ready to move their bodies and be a part of this new chapter of my musical journal!”

“iskwē’s latest single has a driving beat & distorted guitars, with a hook that will get stuck in your head for the rest of the week.” – 3am Revelations

“a mesmerizing alt-electronic pop singer who tells it like it is” – Billboard

“[iskwē’s] words come across as a sonic manifesto” – VICE

“one of the most powerful performers in the country” — CBC Radio

“iskwē sings with a passion and conviction that’s breathtaking” – Bandcamp

“iskwē is more than just an artist; she is a storyteller who informs through her music” — Eat This Music
