The Dusty Halos
Halifax, Nova Scotia
With celestial harmonies and intricate fingerstyle guitar, The Dusty Halos combine the textures of old time acoustic music with original songwriting. Since forming in 2022, the folk group has performed in Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Quebec, quickly gaining attention for their songcraft and intimate vocal chemistry. The Halos are led by singer-songwriter-guitarist Rebecca Fairless, with singer-fiddler Katharine Harrison and singer-bassist Gabriella Ciurcovich. In 2023, they released their debut album, a self-titled EP featuring five emotion-laden tracks. Weaving themes of heartbreak and longing into tuneful tapestries, The Dusty Halos explore the interplay of light and darkness, finding solace in the shadows. Their sound echoes the music of Gillian Welch, The Be Good Tanyas, and Neko Case, and has been compared to “Joni Mitchell singing with herself.”
