Electric Religious is the project of Métis singer-songwriter, Brandon Baker, whose guitar-driven music has been described as “bursting with inspiration, insight, and hope.” Deeply influenced by the psychedelic sounds of Jimi Hendrix, Baker took his moniker from a Hendrix quote: “When I get up on stage, that’s my whole life. That’s my religion… I am electric religion.” His new album, The Taste, releases in July 2024 via Indigenous-owned music label, Red Music Rising. This collection of tunes straddles pop, rock, and funk––with an Indigenous spin on the genres Electric Religious has playfully coined as “Métis Disco.” 

This program is in partnership with Red Music Rising and Canada’s Music Incubator.
