Angela Amarualik
Angela Amarualik was born and raised in Igloolik, Nunavut. Like many other small Indigenous communities, her town had many social problems. Angela worked hard to retain a good attitude, improve her circumstances, and lead by example for the younger kids. Starting with the ukulele, Angela began writing Inuktitut songs in her bedroom closet. Her musical style evolved into a mix between Inuit melodies, throat-singing, and the music of her childhood heroes. In 2018, Angela released her self-titled debut album which won one Indigenous Music Awards and was nominated for three. Next, Angela began touring and teaching musical workshops to Inuit youth, where she was mentored by the late Kelly Fraser.
In October 2022, Angela released her second album, Uvannik. The song, Summa Tamaani, from Uvannik climbed the charts on the Indigenous Music Countdown. Angela was also a winner at the Arctic Music Awards taking home the award for Indigenous Artist/Group of the Year. As a child, Angela was extremely shy, but through music, she has become brave, strong, and independent. Her dream is to share her culture, inspire other Inuit, and create music that people around the world can enjoy.
