Falynn tells us, “As someone who grew up with her language and culture, I thought it was important to promote the language through song. This is one of the first contemporary Cree Christmas albums out there being distributed on a large platform. It will be for sale on iTunes hopefully around the album release date. I’m selling CDs to help offset the cost of the self-funded project.”

Friends here at Cree Literacy Network have helped with preparation of the lyrics (that will eventually be viewable on Falynn’s site under “Cree Chritmas Lyrics” – but for now you can read and sing along from the following page:
