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.
Thanks to the Vancouver Province for making us their cd of the week! "The Fugitives' songs have drama, a discernible joy... and an undercurrent of what could be called elegance... An album of whirling colour and changing shapes."
Tour is under way y'all! Tonight: songwriting clinic at 4pm in London, followed by a show at the APK at 9pm. See you shortly!
