About

The artist

Riit is the professional name of active Inuk musician and television host Rita Claire Mike-Murphy. Her artist-controlled profile identifies her as being from Panniqtuuq, Nunavut, and Apple Music independently lists Panniqtuuq as her home community. Her work combines Inuktitut songwriting, katajjaq, voice, accordion, and electronic pop production. She also became known as the host of the Inuktitut children's program Anaana's Tent. The exact Spotify artist 51rJGI9Wto6CZqOqLStQxO exposes eight album and single containers in Canada, all of which pass principal-artist reconciliation. The catalog runs from the three-track Riit release on June 9, 2017 through Ikiaqqik (Levitating) on April 4, 2025. Spotify classifies one as an album and seven as singles. Representative releases include Riit, qaumajuapik, ataataga, the Doomsquad remix of #uvangattauq, and Ikiaqqik (Levitating). Ataataga received a 2020 JUNO nomination for Indigenous Artist or Group of the Year and appeared on the 2020 Polaris Music Prize long list. #uvangattauq was a finalist for the 2020 SOCAN Songwriting Prize.
