Chris McKhool and Marc Meriläinen, along with many others, have just collaborated on a powerful new record Indigenous Collaborations with Sultans of String Walking Through the Fire.

The songs and music are inspired by the experiences of Indigenous people in Canada, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and Indigenous culture and tradition.

The conversation between Marc, Chris, and Baruch, is about the album, the inspiration and the making of it.
