| About Jason Burnstick |
|
Jason Burnstick is a Cree musician who has been living in Vancouver British Columbia. His cultural roots stem from the Alexis and Alexander First Nations, and from the Duffield reserve west of Edmonton, Alberta.
Jasons interest in music grew from the guidance and support he received from his family, and from the pivotal blues influence of his older brothers. His ability to move from style to the next is largly contributed to the Juno nominated Andean Group Kanatan Aski and the rhythms of Latin Music. His passion led him to pick other instruments along the way such as the weissenborn, mandolin, charango and ronroco which are all within the genre of Jason's Music.
Currently, Jason has stepped back into his blues guitar roots and has and armed himself with the Weissenborn Lap slide guitar. Jason feels that he has finally found his voice and that the weissenborn may be his final resting place.
