SacRED released an EP in December of 2019 and debut album, Silent No More on May 5th, 2021 in honor of National Day of Awareness for Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2spirit.

My goal as an artist and entrepreneur is healing; healing my own traumas, inspiring others to want to heal and providing the tools for our youth to heal from their bloodline traumas. I truly believe that we are given our gifts and our dreams for a reason… trust them! The world needs more people who are in alignment with their gifts from Creator.”

Testimonials

As an arts festival organizer I have had the pleasure of witnessing Ms. Aleck’s presentation of her art and cultural work in the community. During the first annual Koksilah Music Festival in 2017, Ms. Aleck created a spontaneous, potent spoken word/prayer collaboration that was so impactful that a festival goer just yesterday named that as his most memorable moment of the first year of our festival.”

AMAZING words… AMAZING songs tonight by SacRED at the Port! Kukstemc Ecko Aleck. So inspiring – as always. Great show!”
— Holly Bright
Ecko was a 2016 graduate at the Art Institute of Vancouver and she attended my classes in Advanced Recording, Mastering, Audio Post Production and many other upper level courses that I teach. As a student she demonstrated clear leadership skills, held a perfect attendance record, and approached all of her projects with a maturity, work ethic and dedication to a quality product that I hope to see in any of my top students. In short, she was an excellent student who was a positive presence in each class. For this reason and more she was the winner of the instructor-selected Fred Sheratt MusiCounts Award given to who we considered the top Canadian student of the program.”

A powerful performance incorporating sensory ethnographic-type projects and work to further Indigenous empowerment and to develop stronger respect for Indigenous cultures and peoples.

We were so grateful for Ecko’s powerful teachings. I had staff stopping me and telling me how much they enjoyed the session. The kids connected so much with Ecko and told their teachers they could tell she was an artist/musician as her voice sounded “magical.”

— Tiffany Adam, SD62


Upon arrival, I was impressed by Ecko’s prayer, land acknowledgment and introduction. Her voice is soothing within itself and automatically allowed me to feel at ease, welcomed and safe. The ceremonial elements that feed throughout are very encouraging.”

— Rose Nixton

I am so grateful to get to hear stories of Indigenous women of Canada, not only that but also to see them and get to speak with them. This is amazing! Thank you for creating a safe space for our tears and all of our emotions. Your welcoming embrace allows us to reconcile our own stories without shame or fear.”
