Phyllis Sinclair is a Cree, Canadian folk singer-songwriter . A socially conscious balladeer, UK's ''Maverick Magazine'' coined her "The Lady of Conviction". Sinclair's writing is rich in imagery, a continuation of the story-telling tradition of her Cree culture. Her songs are highly influenced by her experience being raised in Winnipeg's inner city in a working-class family. ==Early life== Phyllis Virginia Sinclair was born and raised in Churchill, Manitoba. The eldest of three children, phyllis was raised by her Cree grandmother and mother. Her love for music was developed as a child through singing in the church and elementary school choirs, but none more than singing and jigging and at local gatherings where spoons and toe-tapping were often the only available instrument. Legends of Wisakedjak, and her grandmother's haunting high pitched vocalizations at bedtime fired her imagination and her love of story-telling. At the age of 10, her family moved to Winnipeg's inner city where she picked up the guitar and began her first foray into songwriting. As an escape from street life, she sang as soloist, and often with her younger sister and mother at churches, gatherings and local coffee houses. After spending much of her life working as a journalist across Canada, and in the northern British Columbia commercial fishing industry, Sinclair attained her Master of Business Administration degree while starting a solo career in folk music. She quickly made a name for himself after being featured in Canada's Penguin Eggs Magazine for her acapella sea shanty, ''North Coast Fisher Wife's Prayer''.
