The Fugitives band

About

Canadian indie-folk music band The Fugitives make a long-awaited return to the UK this summer with a concert at the Folk House, Bristol on Sunday 30 June as part of a three-week tour.

Based in Vancouver, they bring brilliant musicianship, top-notch songwriting, complex vocal harmonies and a funny, uplifting vibe to their live performances. Described as 'the missing link between Leonard Cohen and The Pogues', they've received numerous nominations from the Canadian Folk Music Awards, as well as a JUNO – the Canadian version of a GRAMMY.

"No Help Coming is about the climate emergency, with the songs reminding us that we're in it," said Brendan McLeod, co-songwriter and spokesperson for the band. "However, it is more playful than precious, upbeat rather than dower. It's about resolve. There's a lot of resolve to be had in joy. And while humans have a lot of bad things going for us, we can be great at the joy part. So, let's use it."
