THE FUGITIVES w Opener White Ash Falls October 25:
THE FUGITIVES: Friday, October 25: 8:00pm. $15 /$10 students/arts workers/seniors: This award-winning super-band’s current frontmen and 
songwriters, Brendan McLeod, and Adrian Glynn, when not touring as musicians, are active in other artistic pursuits. McLeod is an award winning novelist and former Canadian SLAM poetry champion, while Glynn is a working actor receiving rave reviews for his roles. Their band is similarly eclectic, boasting prominent former members like Mark Berube and CR Avery, and a current rotating cast of supporters that includes violin-looping prodigy Hannah Epperson, multi-instrumentalist Steve Charles, and renowned actor Benjamin Elliot, alongside a host of multi-instrumentalists whose styles range from bluegrass to jazz. As McLeod puts it, “We’re like Broken Social Scene. But acoustic, and way less famous.” “The Fugitives are capable of achieving dizzying, Arcade Fire-ish crescendos, replete with parallel melodies, complex harmonies and brimming torrents of emotion.” UPTOWN MAGAZINE “This show is simply brilliant.” CBC http://www.fugitives.ca Very, very cool Fugitive’s video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uW4fI5-MRs
White Ash Falls opens: As one of Vancouver’s most sought-after sidemen, there’s no questioning Andy Bishop’s craftsmanship and musical smarts. He was a touring member of the rock band Yukon Blonde, the bassist for popsmith James Younger, and a singer-guitarist in the atmospheric folk group Twin River. It’s this balance of precision and spontaneity that shaped the sound of his sophomore album when penning his own country-tinged material as White Ash Falls, ‘Over the Night’. https://www.facebook.com/whiteashfalls/info
