ANCHR's Artist of the Day: The Garrys

The Garrys was another band I stumbled across during my time at Iceland Airwaves this year, and I’m so glad that their description on the festival app caught my eye. “If Ed Sullivan went on a date with the Spice Girls, they would eat ice cream sandwiches and dance to the Garrys,” their description read…and who wouldn’t be intrigued by that?

I showed up to their set at Kex Hostel early and was not disappointed at all by how accurate that blurb in their bio had been. The trio of sisters hailing from Saskatoon put a dash of cheeky attitude into their perfect mix of 1950’s rock and doo-wop influence, and their sibling harmonies placed a cherry on top of their smooth style.

So far, The Garrys have released two albums— Surf Manitou in 2017 and Warm Buds in 2016 and I can’t wait to hear what they have in store next. Be sure to follow them for the latest updates, and listen to “In This Dream” and “Manitouna” below.
