It's a weird time and we're all going a bit crazy at home. And December is only going to exacerbate that. So we wanted to make a video for our new party song that's about partying alone (or at least in a bubble). We asked family, friends and fans to send in clips on this theme, using our new song for dance-piration and we were absolutely blown away by the response.
We received clips from all over North America, Europe and even as far away as India, Ecuador and Morocco (thank you all so, so much)!
We hope this brings some cheer. Please pass it along to anyone that might be feeling a bit lonely these days.
Love, The Fugitives
It's a weird time and we're all going a bit crazy at home. And December is only going to exacerbate that. So we wanted to make a video for our new party song...
Hey all! Our new album, “Trench Songs” goes out into the wide world tomorrow - November 10th, 2020! Very excited to share the work with everyone. You can buy/listen to it in all the normal places.
Trench Songs is an album made up of lyrics of WW1 soldiers, with new music by us. You can read about it in the following publications:
Also, a new movie featuring these songs can be found online beginning Nov.11th. It’s called “Ridge” and was written by Fugitive Brendan McLeod, with music by us.
STREAM RIDGE HERE
This is an a capella tune we wrote using lyrics from a 19th-Century soldier's song by W.F. Thompson. It's the first single off our forthcoming album, 'Trench Songs', out November 10th.
Why does it look so fricking pro? Because it's part of a larger filmed theatre piece called 'Ridge', written by our own Brendan McLeod, produced by the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts, directed by Mike Southworth with cinematography by Byron Kopman.
'Ridge' will have two live in-person screenings at the Pacific Cinematheque on Nov 7th and then will be available to stream online at the Chan's website after that, details here: https://chancentre.com/events/ridge/
