“The Unstrung Heroes” perform traditional folk music from across the Anglosphere, with a repertoire spanning Canadian (in both official languages), English, Irish, Scottish, and American traditions. Their songs explore love and loss, shipwrecks and heroism — with occasional detours into cowardice, vice, and greed. Renowned for their vocal harmonies, the group draws inspiration largely from Canadian artists including Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Stan Rogers, and Ian & Sylvia.
