Heather Masse and her five piece band of Barbarians present an
elegant, insistent melange of Americana: country-blues, folk, soul, and
rock and roll. Shifting plainly between reverie and sobriety and
braced all the while by a rampant tenderness, the Barbarians craft a artful sound that demands, engages, and soothes.
The Barbarians formed while studying at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston. They later relocated to Brooklyn in 2005 where they have found a devoted following. In 2006, Heather & the Barbarians recorded their debut LP at Signature Sound Studios and released Tell Me Tonight the following year. In 2008, the Barbarians began work on a new record that will be forthcoming in 2009.
Lead vocalist Heather Masse is also a member of the Canadian folk group The Wailin' Jennys. The Jenny's have been performing at venues across North America, the UK and as frequent guests on Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion. Other members of Heather & the Barbarians have performed with artists such as Adrienne Young, King Wilkie, Julian Velard, Michael Buble, holus Bolus, and Cat Show Snapshots.
