The Grievous Angels have been carving out a unique place in the alt-roots landscape for the last three decades. Led by singer-songwriter (and former Member of Parliament for Timmins-James Bay) Charlie Angus, their songs conjure the tragic beauty of Canada’s northern blue collar frontier. Their latest album, Last Call for Cinderella, was released in May 2024 and is their strongest yet.
“Somewhere between Gram and Townes lies the Grievous Angels. Achingly beautiful.” — John Emms
“The Grievous Angels are following in the footsteps of Woody Guthrie, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Joe Strummer and Billy Bragg.” — Tinnitist
“Politically charged.” — Canadian Beats
“It’s like wandering into the perfect kitchen party where the musicians are not only impeccable, but the material flows from one song and genre to the next seamlessly. This is a protest music for a modern world.” — Blog Critics.org
