Join us for a talk and performance of Joik with Sámi American musician and singer, Nathan Muus
Museum of International Folk Art

Writer, musician, and Joiker, Muus is a Sámi American leader who’s been involved in the Sámi American awakening for 30 years

Of Norwegian/Swedish and Sami family descent, he has long practiced original the Joik (Saami style traditional singing). He will be here today with a small group to play/sing and discuss what is the yoik in Sami culture, and how has it developed- from a North American diaspora experience. On one of a number of original music websites, Soundclick, he has over 85,000 song listens.

Muus is one of original founders of the Sami Cultural Center of North America located in Duluth Minnesota.
