Often called the "battle that made Canada," Vimy Ridge resulted in over 10,000 Canadian casualties. Through storytelling and live music, The Fugitives examine misconceptions and varying perspectives around the battle, while drawing parallels to other formative events in our nation’s past. The songs from “Ridge” were nominated for the 2022 JUNO for Best Traditional Roots Album. A vivid, kinetic ride through history, as well as an intimate, personal examination of our connection to the past, Ridge is a visceral work that passionately argues against the exploitation of young lives.
