Outlaw Social is a five piece band from Victoria B.C., born out of friendship and tempered by a mutual passion for traditional string music. Three talented and uniquely emotive lead vocalists are carried by equally spectacular playing on traditional string instruments and electric guitar, making for a sound that is vibrant and original. Their repertoire includes powerful original songwriting, thoughtful interpretations of traditional music, and a few truly inspired covers of contemporary songs. In 2006 the release of their seven song e.p. met with high critical acclaim as “creating a new voice in Canadian acoustic music” (Penguin Eggs, Winter 2006). With the release of their new album Dry Bones in the fall of 2007, Outlaw Social have taken their varied talents and forged them into a dynamic sound, deeply rooted in tradition but clearly all their own. Outlaw Social is Catherine Black, Danielle Lebeau Petersen, Jeremy Penner, Oliver Swain and Dan Wise. Read more on Last.fm.
