“The Souls”

| The imagery of
this
banner is a collage of all the original members of the Souls of
Inspyration, a Red Lake based band that were quite famous during the
60’s. I combined all of the members in a kind of swirly
psychedelic void to emphasize the spirit of the 60’s. This imagery reflects the history of the district because the group was Red Lake based and made their start playing at dances and in youth hangouts. They soon became well known and went on to play at Expo and in Japan, but never forgot their roots. |

The
large face at the top of the banner is Don
Wilson, the bass player of the band who still lives in Red Lake to this
day. For many years he had taught music to young members of the
community free of charge, one of his students being me.
