The Fugitives, established in 2007, have released four records, which have been nominated for multiple Canadian Folk Music Awards and a Western Canadian Music Award. Their previous album, Everything Will Happen, spent ten weeks on the top ten Canadian folk charts, and earned them a support slot across Western Canada with Buffy Sainte-Marie and an appearance at UK’s Glastonbury Festival. Their follow-up, The Promise of Strangers, is set for release on January 26th on Borealis Records.

New Album in 2026!

December 06, 2025 / fugitives

Thanks to everyone for another great year of shows! A showcase at Folk Alliance, a tour of Ontario, three folk fests, a week of shows in Osaka, Japan (!), the premiere of “Beyond Vimy” on Vancouver Island, and a great Ridge run in Calgary at Lunchbox Theatre.

Oh yeah, and we recorded a new album! It’ll be out in 2026, along with a tour across Canada and to the UK. Some dates are already up and on sale, and we will be adding more over the next few months. See you on the road!
