Canadian indie folk band The Fugitives make a long-awaited return to Shrewsbury this summer to promote their new album – No Help Coming.
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 have received numerous Canadian Folk Music Awards and Western Canadian Music Awards nominations.
Since their last visit in 2017, the band have recorded a new album entitled No Help Coming, which will be on sale at their concerts. During lockdown they wrote and recorded the critically acclaimed and award-nominated Trench Songs, highlighting the experiences of young Canadian soldiers during World War I. Premiering as Ridge it has toured to over 30 theatres across Canada, and more recently as Over The Ridge in the form of a contemporary collaborative dance piece.
