Reading the list of accomplishments of Teagan Littlechief one would think that she's been in the music business for many years. At the age of 14, she recorded her first demo single and at the age of 15 she won a local Star Search competition in Saskatchewan. This new young talent from the White Bear First Nation in southern Saskatchewan was nominated for the artist of the year at the 2006 Saskatchewan Country Music Awards. She's a recipient of the Bridging Arts Grant Award from the Saskatchewan Arts Board for performing Arts.
Now, at 21-years old, she has recently released her first full length CD entitled, "Rising Above."
Littlechief's talents were discovered at a very young age by her music teacher in school who suggested to her parents that a vocal coach be brought in to help her further this talent that she was given. All those years of vocal lessons have indeed paid off for Teagan.
Her debut CD includes 10 tracks, which include "Vulnerable" and "Bring it On" two songs she first recorded when she won a talent competition back in 2002. Both songs were re-recorded for her new CD with a much more mature sound. One song that stands out is "One Woman" a song that was written by Becky Hobbs and Don Goodman. It tells of how one woman can make a difference in life no matter what obstacles they may face. Teagan Littlechief may be that "One Woman" who will make a difference in the country music scene. She hopes to earn the chance to sing and perform at the CCMA's or the JUNOS and at the rate she's going that opportunity might come her way very soon.
