People keep calling Tamarack Cunningham a folk singer, which isn’t wrong, exactly. Certainly, there are superficial similarities (acoustic guitar, shaggy hair, plaid shirts). Drawing on diverse genre influences, Tamarack makes loud, angry music for quiet, "happy" instruments. He's probably the 7th best ukulele player in Edmonton, although that's never been verified. The result is catchy, musically ambitious indie-prog-folk.

Probably best known for playing frozen traditional guitar at the métis camp at the Flying Canoë Volant festival as part of the Cunningham Family Band, Tamarack has also been part of many other diverse musical projects, from Melafrique (afro-pop), Birch Island (soul/folk) and Day of the Robot (garage rock). His music sounds a little bit like all of these things, and not very much like any of those things.

Tamarack lives in Edmonton and rides his bicycle a lot.
