In Studio: The Barr Brothers

Soundcheck | Dec 7, 2011

Rhode-Island born brothers Brad and Andrew Barr spent a decade touring the US from coast to coast as the improv-rock group, The Slip. But then they moved to Montreal, added a few non-siblings to the mix and became…The Barr Brothers. They bring their harp, harmonium and more to our studio for a live performance.

See The Barr Brothers live at Union Pool, Thursday December 8, 2011. More information here.
