Julie & The Wrong Guys

A return to the heavier side of Juno Award-winning singer/songwriter <a href="spotify:artist:1sjeOeIPG7quxVgmNspYyT">Julie Doiron</a>'s music, Julie & the Wrong Guys delivers some of her heaviest sounds since her <a href="spotify:artist:5nzD0ZoeBRaeAZYaPt2DBs">Eric's Trip</a> days. <a href="spotify:artist:1sjeOeIPG7quxVgmNspYyT">Doiron</a> originally enlisted the Wrong Guys -- folk-punk troubadour and guitarist <a href="spotify:artist:6ZemFEByTJWF9a8AzWcSZ0">Eamon McGrath</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:10YNQq86z4shHwDSymTyWc">Cancer Bats</a> drummer Mike Peters and bassist Jaye Schwarzer -- to be her backing band in 2011 for a string of shows while she was living in Toronto. The mix of <a href="spotify:artist:1sjeOeIPG7quxVgmNspYyT">Doiron</a>'s clarion vocals and the band's hardcore roots proved potent, and they released their debut single, "Homeless/Farther from You, in late 2016. The following year, their self-titled album arrived on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Dine+Alone+Records%22">Dine Alone Records</a>. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
