Daughters of the Loon

About Me

We sing with a drum group called Nay a No, which is Cree for "People of Four" and our clan is Daughters of the Loon. This group consists of two sets of sisters, Lisa, Tara Monkman and Lisa, Tamara Muswagon. Together we have formed one of the first young all female hand drum groups in Manitoba, and have been singing together for 11 years. Through out the years, we have each accomplished many goals, been through many travels, and have shared our experiences with one another. We will be fixing up this page, and putting more music, so thank you for being patient.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 12/16/2005
Influences: "... Since we can remember, our parents have taught us many teachings to live by and follow. Our grandmother, introduced the fancy shawl dance to us, which intrigued our interest into the beat and rhythm of the drum as well as the meaning and story behind each song. Since then, we picked up the hand drum, a gift from our father at a young age and been singing on it since, carrying it on for the next generations to come..."
