Bio: Shining singing, deadly folk songs, handmade banjos and old guitars: Pharis & Jason Romero have a classic story. Some scratchy old records and a custom banjo led to their meeting in 2007, and they quickly knew they were in for the long haul. They've since released six records, toured across North America and Europe and garnered two Juno awards, multiple Canadian Folk Music Awards, features on NPR Music, CBC, and BBC, and performances on A Prairie Home Companion and CBC's The Vinyl Cafe. Their heartbreakingly harmonic live show is an ever-evolving and never-ending quest for good songs and beautiful sounds. They are passionate teachers and believers in many things folk; Pharis is Artistic Director for Voice Works, (a workshop for singers) and Jason teaches all styles of banjo playing, especially old-time three finger playing.
