Photo: Elders meet with the Stanfields at Toonik Tyme

The Stanfields, described as “a maelstrom of rock ‘n’ roll, Celtic and bluegrass, hailing from the gritty post-industrial towns of Nova Scotia,” who played an evening concert April 14 during Iqaluit’s Toonik Tyme, pose with elders at their qammak after performing a private afternoon concert for the group. Toonik Tyme continues April 16 with elders’ outside games in front of the qammak, starting at 1:30 p.m. and a youth music night at the youth centre from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.. The spring festival wraps up with a cake decorating contest in the curling rink at 6:30 p.m., followed by a pot-luck feast and celebration (entry $2). (PHOTO BY ED MARUYAMA/COURTESY OF TOONIK TYME)
