	Newfoundland and Labrador - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Newfoundland and Labrador (French, Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador, Irish: Talamh an Éisc agus Labradóir, Latin: Terra Nova) is a province of Canada, the tenth to join Confederation.

	Newfoundland (province) - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Newfoundland (province)
		Mainland Labrador is bounded to the west and south by the Ungava region of Québec.
		Newfoundland and Labrador were originally inhabited by the Maritime Archaic People, referred to as the Red Paint peoples because of the red ochre that lines their graves; a burial ground over 7,500 years old has been excavated at L'Ane-Amour, Labrador.
		In 1537 Newfoundland was proclaimed British territory, but efforts to establish permanent settlements there, for example in 1564, failed when faced with the antagonism of the various fishing concerns, and the continuing conflict between Britain and France over sovereignty.

	Popular Music: Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage
		For most, the phrase "Newfoundland music" suggests shanties and ballads and jigs and reels, a spirited sound descended from the ancient folk traditions of England and Ireland.
		The music of TNT, a Stephenville band that also operated a recording studio, might not be "Newfoundland" music in the traditional sense, but for several years the band filled clubs and dances with songs written, recorded and performed by Newfoundland musicians for Newfoundland audiences.
		The traditional music of Newfoundland is widely and legitimately viewed as a voice of the Newfoundland spirit and identity, a statement of cultural self-definition.

	Music: Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage
		The earliest evidence of music in what is now Newfoundland and Labrador is a bone flute found at that Maritime Archaic burial mound in L'anse Amour on the south coast of Labrador.
		Music was reinterpreted and transmitted because it seemed relevant to the lives of new generations.
		Country music had evolved in the southern United States out of the same Irish and English musical traditions that had persisted in Newfoundland and Labrador, so it is not surprising that country music became very popular here during the 20th century.
