Barr Brothers

Rhode Island's Brad and Andrew Barr, now based in Montreal, are garnering big attention.  Big enough to land them on Late Night With David Letterman.  


Formerly with the improv based trio The Slip, they joined forces with Sarah Page and Andres Vial to create their music which ranges from a rustic, under-produced chamber music sound to full on guitar based rocking out.  They often use unusual instrumentation and create a unique performance.


The Barr Brothers have made the "Long List" for the 2012 Polaris Music Prize and will be appearing at the 2012 Calgary Folk Music Festival.
