Folk Bands and Artists
Murder Murder
Northern Ontario’s Murder Murder are a six-piece string band with suitcase percussion who create a unique blend of bluegrass and outlaw country. The band takes “rich down-home vocals and churns them with a brand of gothic that is as catchy as it is intriguing; audiences will be swept away by not only the band’s musical talent, but the web of tragedy and tension that the songs spin.” (Emma Sloan, Canadian Beats 2017)
Canadian culture and a fascination with their “Northern“ geographical surroundings are the focus of the band´s art - all of their narratives are set in Canada, primarily in their home of Northern Ontario. “Rooted in lore, but not bound by it, they incorporate a modern ethos into the mix. Their fiery blend strikes a cord with listeners looking for the best of both worlds: an authentic ode to the past with a fresh sensibility and perspective.” (Elizabeth Andrews, Disarm Magazine 2017)
“This is a roller coaster of an album built on blood, trains, murder, passion and death / a heady mixture with some of the most infectious and memorable songs I’ve heard in a while.“ - NE:MM North East Music Monthly UK
“The singers pour honey on brutality... fit to captivate any crowd in Canada“ - Grayowl Point
