Art Napoleon may be a musician, but he's also a wonderful storyteller. The Victoria, B.C. musician gave a performance at CBC Vancouver's Studio 40 rife with northern Cree humour and stories that perfectly illustrated his spirit-filled music.
Art says some people describe his music as "bush country blues". One thing is for sure, Art's November 13th concert entertained the studio audience so much, they got up danced.
