Choir Boy Lucky
Description
Andrew Balfour's story is an inspiring and triumphant one. Adoption at two months old to a loving family gave him a happy childhood. Then, after learning as a teenager that he was Metis, he struggled though years of rebellion, homelessness and served a short prison sentence. Once released he turned his life around though song and continues to inspire and be inspired through a fusion of European and Aboriginal culture, the duality in himself, two strong bloodlines.
