“You have a big voice. Use it.”
That’s the advice Teagan Littlechief’s mom gave her after years of struggling with imposter syndrome. Now, the powerhouse country artist from White Bear First Nation is passing that message on through her new single, “Rez Girl Proud.” It’s an anthem for other girls like herself to know their worth, stand tall and keep going, no matter how many times life knocks them down.
In 2026, Teagan joined a group of Indigenous artists from across Canada at Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre, for a five-day intensive artist development program. The experience provided career guidance, mentorship from leading music industry professionals, and meaningful opportunities for collaboration and creative exchange among the artists.
Sponsored by TD Bank Group, the National Music Centre’s OHSOTO’KINO Music Incubator is supporting the next wave of Indigenous talent and amplifying Indigenous stories through music.
