Get ready for an evening of thoughtful lyrics and irresistible melodies with The Barr Brothers! Hailing from the streets of Montreal, this dynamic ensemble weaves a tapestry of sound that perfectly blends a variety of musical influences. Comprised of brothers Brad and Andrew Barr, along with the multi-instrumentalist wizardry of Sarah Pagé, The Barr Brothers defy convention with their spellbinding fusion of folk, blues, rock, and beyond.With Brad's soulful vocals and masterful guitar work, Andrew's powerhouse percussion driving rhythms, and Sarah's ethereal harp melodies, each Barr Brothers performance is a journey into various sounds. From intimate acoustic ballads to explosive, genre-bending jams, their music captivates audiences with its raw emotion and infectious energy.
The Barr Brothers released their self-titled debut album, recorded in a boiler room in Montreal, in 2011. Since then, they’ve performed on The Late Show with David Letterman twice, several NPR programs, CBS This Morning Saturday, Canada AM, France Inter “Le Nouveau Rendez-Vous”, and more. They’ve shared stages with The National, The War On Drugs, Patrick Watson, My Morning Jacket, Emmylou Harris and countless others. Their most recent album, Queens of the Breakers (2017), pushed the group to new sonic areas, taking inspiration from Indian and West African music, and while also utilizing an 808 drum machine.
