Order Motewolonuwok HERE.Praise for Motewolonuwok
★★★★- Rolling Stone France
"As powerful as his lyrics, though, is Dutcher's performance style." - Vogue"[Jeremy Dutcher] brings forward the spirit of his people on this beautiful record." - NPR Music
"There is revolution in this album… Motewolonuwok is about people rising up in the streets, about unity and community, about identity. Dutcher, who is a member of Neqotkuk (Tobique First Nation), shares an operatic timbre with Anohni, his songs transmitting a similar sense of spiritual commitment. There is real weight behind these songs, and Motewolonuwok carries it with sombre grace." ★★★★- MOJO"A captivating set, with Dutcher's extraordinary and expressive vocals underpinned by orchestral arrangements... Mesmerising, magical and often deeply moving."★★★★- The Morning Star
"Dutcher yearns earnestly in a powerful voice that lands somewhere between Anohni and Curtis Stigers, doling out lush soul ballads, which deal with land sovereignty and queerness" - Uncut
"Richly orchestrated, his intimate walks unfold an intense dramaturgy to transcend the pain of oppression and express the soothing beauty of resilience". - Télérama
"[Ancestors Too Young] is a powerful new prism through which the composer shines his light. His plaintive vibrato still reflects his opera training as he sings, […] but his howl eventually rises to a rock-inspired crescendo […]. It's an exciting new direction for the composer's upcoming sophomore album, Motewolonuwok, mixing art rock influences with orchestral swells and a jazz rhythm section." - Exclaim!'s Staff Picks
"The song [Skicinuwihkuk] is tender and lyrical, but also takes flight on a wave of orchestral sound that amplifies the song's emotional content" - WNYC "New Sounds"'"Skicinuwihkuk" is a moving piece" - CBC Music
