Running For The Drum

Two disc (CD + NTSC/Region 0 DVD) edition of her 2009 release including a bonus DVD entitled a Multi-Media Life in which Buffy's extraordinary life story is told on screen - from her early days bursting onto the Greenwich Village Folk scene in the 60's, to becoming an Oscar-winning songwriter, a Sesame Street regular, an international Aboriginal spokesperson and a pioneering digital artist. The CD, Running for the Drum, contains 12 new inspired songs and stories about current events, art, politics and the aboriginal people, that showcase her emotional integrity and thrilling voice. Buffy Sainte-Marie virtually invented the role of Native American international activist pop star. Her concern for protecting indigenous intellectual property, and her distaste for the exploitation of Native American artists and performers has kept her in the forefront of activism in the arts for 40 years.
