Pharis & Jason Romero

Pharis and Jason are a sentimental anchoring, and the perfect antidote to this sped-up life. Some scratchy old records and a custom banjo led to their meeting in 2007, and they quickly knew they were in for the long haul. They've since released seven records, toured all over, won four Juno awards and multiple Canadian Folk Music Awards, and performed on A Prairie Home Companion and CBC's The Vinyl Cafe.

They write songs about life and people in a tiny town, with a powerful dose of the early country and folk they so dearly love. They've got two kids, a big garden, and they create beautiful boutique banjos. They're also passionate teachers and folk music lovers.
