The Dungarees

From humble beginnings in western Canada to international festival stages, award winning band The Dungarees have taken their unique brand of country – blending the classic twang of a telecaster and infusing it with modern intensity and pop sensibility – to become one of Canada’s fastest rising stars. With multiple CCMA and ACMA wins between them, James Murdoch (bass/vocals), Robb Angus (guitar/vocals), Kiron Jhass (guitar/vocals) Darrek Anderson (steel guitar) and Ben Shillabeer (drums) have become an undeniable force in country music.

The Dungarees are back in 2020 with the release of the 'Twenty Something' EP. Known for powerful song writing and warm harmonies, lead single 'Don't Make Em Like They Used To' is a sentimental track exploring the learning inherent in a life dotted with the experience of love and loss. The lyrics are reflective of the everyday moments that live in unfaded memory, and in quiet reflection with cherished heirlooms from friends and family.

Embracing every opportunity life has thrown their way, The Dungarees have hit celebrated summer festival stages including Boots and Hearts, Big Valley Jamboree, the Calgary Stampede, Country Thunder, Dauphin CountryFest, Sunfest Country Music Festival, as well as Tamworth Country Music Festival and the Gympie Music Muster in Australia. The band has had the honour to serve as direct support for country music royalty Miranda Lambert, Blake Shelton, Zac Brown Band, Reba McEntire, Dwight Yoakam and Alabama.
