2014 Polaris Music Prize winner and bad-ass throat singer Tanya Tagaq is back with a brand new track and a video to match. The new song is titled “Aorta” and as the name implies, it will cut to your main artery of the body. It will hit you right in the heart and then send shivers down your backbone. Filmed at Emanuel Vigeland Museum, Oslo, Norway the video features Tanya Tagaq amongst some art that is as powerful as her voice. Check out the video above.
Animism is out now on Six Shooter Records. You can (and should) catch her live at one of dates below.
