Title
Jonek states about the title of his debut album: "An
Inukshuk is a "rock person", that Inuit people used to
place in areas lacking landmarks. They served a few
purposes, but mainly were used to point to things like good
hunting, shelter, etc. The album concept is exactly that:
standing as a landmark to point people in the right
direction." |
