Shauit is a Canadian singer-songwriter, who blends traditional First Nations music, primarily in the Innu-aimun language, with pop-rock and reggae music.[1]
Originally from Maliotenam, Quebec, he is the son of an Acadian father and an Innu mother.[2] He was raised francophone, and had virtually no knowledge of the Innu language until learning it as a teenager in a bid to reconnect with his indigenous heritage.[3]
He first became known as a frequent collaborator with rapper Samian, appearing as a featured guest performer on several of Samian's singles.[4] He released his debut EP as a solo recording artist in 2016,[4] and followed up with his full-length debut album Apu Peikussiaku in 2017.[5]
