BLOW NORTH __

One man's sacrifice for the gift of music.

Mike Stevens was affected by what he saw in the news. Children were sniffing gas out of bags. On a stop over in Goose Bay, Labrador he acknowledged these kids while playing at a military base, en route to play for the troops in Bosnia. Mike was taken to task by a local journalist who challenged Mike to face these kids. He saw the little crosses and learned of trajedies on his way to a community and an encounter that would change him forever.

This film was largely self-financed, along with generous contributions from Canada Council for the Arts, Arts Can Circle, Errol Williams, Rotimi Martens and many more.

The film is currently in the late stages of post-production and a version has already been submitted as a completed work to Canada Council for the Arts under the working title, "Guerrilla Music In The North".
