Hola,
Colin Campbell here with another super podcast.
What an incredible experience it was to interview Mr. Brad Barr from The Barr Brothers Band. Let me share the scoop on these talented musicians. The Barr Brothers, an indie folk band based in Montreal, Quebec, have been making a significant impact on the music scene since their formation in 2006. Founded by American brothers Andrew (drums, percussion, vocals, keyboards) and Brad Barr (guitar, vocals), the band's distinct sound is enriched by the talents of bassist Morgan Moore, pedal steel guitarist Brett Lanier, and harpist Eveline Gregoire-Rousseau.
Their musical journey began when Brad and Andrew, originally from Providence, RI, decided to call Montreal their home after years of touring and recording as part of The Slip. It was in Montreal that they crossed paths with harpist Sarah Pagé. Together, they embarked on their musical journey under the name "The Barr Brothers," blending Brad's original songs with a diverse array of influences, including Delta blues, Malian rhythms, and Appalachian musical traditions.
Their discography boasts critically acclaimed albums such as "The Barr Brothers," "Sleeping Operator," and "Queens of the Breakers." The band has earned multiple Juno Awards nominations and has taken their captivating performances to audiences across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe, and Japan. Notably, they have graced renowned venues like Levon Helm's studio in Woodstock and the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheater. They even made appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman.
The music of The Barr Brothers is a harmonious fusion of indie folk and Delta blues, showcasing their remarkable diversity of influences and undeniable musical talent.
Enjoy it.
Hugs,
Colin
