- **Event Description**: Blending old-time roots with modern-day storytelling, The Western Thistles are an Edmonton folk duo known for their clawhammer banjo, rhythm guitar, and rich vocal harmonies. The group was born from the musical connection between Mark Boer and Sabrina (Bri) Huot-Boer, who came together to weld their talents for the sake of the song. Their sound draws from folk, roots, and old-time traditions while carving out a space distinctly their own.



In 2025, The Western Thistles released their self-titled debut album, recorded live off the floor and co-produced by Miles Wilkinson (Guy Clark, Emmylou Harris, Darrell Scott). The album reached #26 on CKUA’s Top 100 most-played albums of the year, standing as a testament to their commitment to crafting songs with heart, grit, and intention.

As songwriters and performers, they channel lived experience into work that reflects both personal narrative and musical lineage. Rooted in a dedication to craft, they shape songs that foster connection, creating space for listeners to hear their own stories reflected in the music.
