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.

 

Happenings

Hello all;   It was lovely to see many of you this summer at various summery festival type places, even if all of them didn't look quite so summery. We still had a ball. Hanging with the likes of Dan Bern, Joel Plaskett, Elliott Brood.. we could get used to this. We've just about exhausted the would-you-rather game, though. Wait, what? Never!! The Fugitives will be taking a little time for our members to focus on solo stuff-- Babs is composing pieces about animals with Fang and working with the symphony (!); Brendan is working hard on his novel (!) and also doing some touring; and Adrian just released a solo CD (you can grab it here ) and will be touring Eastern/Western Canada in Sept/Oct (his tour dates so far here, more to come).

We promise we'll be with you again soon so stay in touch.

 

See you soon, pretties,

Fugitives
