How do you describe Murder Murder?
Well, they describe themselves as a Bloodgrass band… that’s Bluegrass + Outlaw Country + Exclusively Murder Ballads. As devoted fans of bluegrass, traditional music, and folk music, they were drawn to the murky ethical themes of the murder ballad and its enduring nature.
Murder ballads have often captured the essence and atmosphere of a dark, lawless and violent frontier. Northern Ontario, although never romanticized in the way that the Wild West or Canada’s far north were during the gold rush era, was once such a place – with a wealth of stories and characters.
Come and join Murder Murder as they bring their tales of death back to life with a kick of the suitcase, saw of the fiddle, and roll of the banjo.
