Rising folk-roots stars from Winnipeg are on their way to New Westminster.
The Brothers Landreth are set to perform at the Massey Theatre on Friday, Jan. 15 at 8 p.m.
The Winnipeg-based band includes David Landreth, his brother Joey and their longtime friends and bandmates Ariel Posen and Ryan”Rhino” Voth. They’ve been riding a wave of success since their album Let It Lie took the Best Roots and Traditional Album award at the Juno Awards, with highlight songs such as Our Love, Firecracker and Nothing.
“Their songs include mid-tempo rockers, butter-smooth ballads and cowboy lullabies,” a press release explains. “They find inspiration not only in the landscape of the human heart, but also the windswept prairies that stretch for hours on every side of Winnipeg’s city limits. The music is steeped in the history and heritage of the band’s hometown.”
The group also earned New/Emerging Artist of the Year honours at the Canadian Folk Music Awards last year.
Tickets for their Massey Theatre show are $35, or $25 for students and seniors, plus service charges, at www.ticketsnw.ca.
