Info:

“As soon as they get going, so does their hungry public. For the past six years The Steady Swagger have been crafting their unique style of folk storytelling grounded by a solid rock & roll foundation. They play a deft mélange of high octane theatrical folk music punctuated by surf rock, jazz, pirate shanties and gritty blues.”

“The Steady Swagger is a power trio fronted by two mainland pirates armed with an upright bass, acoustic guitar, and anchored by the rhythmic flow of the damsel on the drums. Two whiskey soaked baritone voices worthy of the roughest terrain and a raw onstage energy forge the fundamental backbone that consistently carves smiles on men, women and children alike. Based out of Montreal they play music self defined as Whiskeybillie; a blend of folk-hop, gypsy-rock and jazz-punk reminiscent of Gogol Bordello, Tom Waits and Primus fermenting in a charred oak cask, it is aggressively fun and has the power to get any feet stomping.”

“Mundial Montreal is a music conference and festival designed to showcase some of the best of World Music from Canada.”

“The first of its kind in North America, MUNDIAL MONTREAL (November 13-16, 2018) is a world music conference & festival that celebrates our rich cultural diversity through a variety of showcases while creating an unprecedented network of world music presenters and professionals with a common goal: to develop professional opportunities!”
