The Fugitives aren’t quite like other bands, so it’s perhaps not surprising that their music doesn’t really sound like other music. The Canadian duo are made up of a novelist and poetry slam champion, Brendan McLeod, and an actor, Adrian Glynn – with a bunch of other friends, musicians and hangers-on invited to flesh out the sound. In ‘Ring’, which is taken from their upcoming third album Everything Will Happen, they’ve crafted one of the more gently stunning tracks we’ve heard in a while. ‘Ring’ is out on May 26, while the band have a run of UK shows coming up in June – check their website for details – concluding with a set at Glastonbury.
