In 1988, Cowboy Junkies proved that there was an audience waiting for something quiet, beautiful and reflective. The Trinity Session was like a whisper that cut through the noise \u2014 and it was compelling. It stood out in the midst of the flash and bombast that came to define the late 80\u2019s.
\nThe now classic recording combined folk, blues and rock in a way that had never been heard before and went on to sell more than a million copies. Formed in Toronto in 1985 with siblings Michael Timmins on guitar, Margo Timmins on vocals, Peter Timmins on drums, and Michael\u2019s lifelong friend Alan Anton on bass, the band has sparkled over the course of 26 albums. \u201cI\u2019ve known Alan longer than I\u2019ve known Pete,\u201d says Michael. \u201cWe were friends before Pete was born.\u201d
\nUnlike most long-lasting groups, Cowboy Junkies have never had a break up or taken a sanity-saving hiatus. There\u2019s an appreciation of each other that keeps them constantly working. \u201cIt\u2019s that intimacy and understanding of what each one of us brings to the table,\u201d says Michael.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
