The Fugitives

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.

Try It On: Mix

If you've been to one of our shows, you know that at some point we always "break up the band" and do solo pieces. Beyond the pure, sweet joy of giving each other goofy intros, we LOVE doing this, for the chance to stuff your ears with our individual passions.

The Fugitives are proud to present a selection of brand new stuff! The band pieces are two songs we recorded in December for the holidays. All of the solo pieces are from forthcoming albums: Adrian's are from his new album, 'Bruise' due in April; Barbara's are from her just released Fang EP (accordion shout rock!); Brendan's are excerpts from his full length monologue, which also drops in April. This is fresh stuff!

Track Listing:

1. It's Not Christmas (The Fugitives)

2. Children of Divorce (Fang (Barbara Adler))

3. 7 or 8 Days (Adrian Glynn)

4. The Fruit Machine (Brendan McLeod)

5. Christmas at the Office Party (The Fugitives)

6. Bruise (Adrian Glynn)

7. How Not to Write a Love Letter (Brendan McLeod)

8. Walking (Fang (Barbara Adler))

9. Breaking Up Sucks (Brendan McLeod)

10. 200 Days (Adrian Glynn)

11. Let it Rest (Barbara Adler)

New Christmas songs up on our Myspace!

Just a quick note to let you know that we have two new Christmas songs out. I know, I know - who cares about christmas songs?! They all suck, right? But we were invited to give some tracks to a great new xmas compilation out on Light Organ Records. We were surprised to find that not only did we really like the xmas songs we wrote, but we really liked all the songs on this compilation.

So, please - go listen! Our two xmas songs are up at our myspace:

Christmas Release and Folk for the Holidays!

Hey everyone, It's weird to be, like, 'Merry Christmas!' in November, but our two new original Christmas songs came out yesterday. They part of a compilation from Light Organ Records, which also features songs by Adrian (team triangle!), Nat Jay, We are the City, Cory Woodward, The Zolas, Adaline, and on and on and on. All amazing Vancouver independent musicians!

Also, on December 3, we will be playing the annual folk festival fundraiser for the Vancouver Folk Fest. Nothing we would rather support than that! And the line up is sick. Us, Hannah Georgas, The Sojourners, and Roy Forbes. Check all the details for the show here:
