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.
"I promise to remember how fortunate I truly am, and that being kicked out of a country could have been much worse if I had not made friends and had not been a Canadian citizen. I also promise to remember those that didn't get the chances we did."- Ambre
