Since their formation in Montreal, in 1995, The Dears have cemented themselves as one of Canada’s most celebrated and cherished indie rock staples. While the make-up of the band has been relatively fluid over the years, at its heart has always been the glistening guitars and vocals of Murray Lightburn and the transcendent keys of Natalia Yanchak. A full time member since 2010, percussionist Jeff Luciani remains in the frame will be joining them for their upcoming UK shows.
Making moreishly dark and textured chamber-pop their own, The Dears released their debut album ‘End of A Hollywood Bedtime Story’ in 2000 and have released a further 8 studio albums to date, securing multiple Polaris Prize nominations in the process. With a sound that has resonated with audiences across the globe, they have embarked on extensive headline tours across Canada, U.S., UK, Europe, Japan and Australia, as well as opening for majors acts including Morrisey, The Secret Machines and Keane.
