We’ve highlighted our fair share of Americana in the past few months because it isn’t too often that the genre gets the love and attention it rightfully deserves. In the name of folk music, we’re back with another awesome Americana duo straight out of Canada. Yes, you heard me correctly—Canada.
Whitehorse is a brand new project created by two of Canada’s most acclaimed folk singer-songwriters, Luke Doucet and Melissa McClelland.
The duo recently released their first self-titled LP on August 30th with Six Shooter Records, and it has been well-received by the public.
Whitehorse begins a worldwide tour today (1/18), in Cambridge, MA. Check them out if you get the chance. You won’t be disappointed.
