Chief Frank dedicated this CD to the Kwakwaka'wakw people. Tribal journeys have been an inspiration for Chief Frank. The songs on "In the Spirit of Our Ancestors" have been used on his journeys and he dedicates them to the demands made by his culture, honour, integrity and respect. The CD features seven tracks that are very special to Chief Frank. |
