Canadian indie pop rockers The Strumbellas formed in Toronto in 2008,
centring their toe-tapping blend of folk, alt-country, pop and indie
rock around the distinctive rebel howl of bearded frontman Simon Ward
and his satisfying songwriting. After eight years and 500 live shows
building their reputation as a cult hit, the sextet broke into the
mainstream with their uplifting, chant-able summer anthem Spirits,
which has amassed 150 million Spotify streams and almost 60 million
Youtube views.
