In a genre dominated by solo artists, The Dungarees stand out as a 5-man brotherhood, dedicated to their love of traditional, high energy country music.
Their new EP, “Ain’t Through Being Happy Yet”, produced by multiple CCMA winner, Bart McKay, is set for release on September 5, 2014.
The Dungarees have performed at some of the biggest country festivals in Canada, including Big Valley Jamboree and Dauphin CountryFest and recently opened for Reba McEntire at Calgary’s Saddledome for The Calgary Stampede.
They have a definitive musical mandate; Take the undeniable lyrical styling, twangy telecaster and steel guitar that they love from classic country, and inject it with modern intensity and pop sensibility.
All five members of this traditional country music outfit are essential players in a number of different national & international recording artists bands as well as their own original bands (Robb Angus in The Wheat Pool, James Murdoch of Adam Gregory Band, his solo project and Darrek Anderson of The Guaranteed) or essential members in others (Ben Shillabeer in The Boom Chucka Boys, Kiron Jhass in The Uncas) The Dungarees have had a great deal of touring and recording experience to call on.
They’re dedicated to showing an audience a fantastic time and making sure the crowd enjoys themselves as much as the band does on stage; miss them at your own peril.
