JUNO Award-winners The East Poi
nters\, Tim Chaisson (vocals/fiddle/percussion)and Jake Charron (guitar/ke
yboards)\, are innovators within the ever-evolving genre of modern folk\,
crafting a joy-conjuring\, dancefloor-shaking\, roof-rattling fusion of fo
lk\, pop\, and dance music. In the studio\, four records have captured the
furious energy of their live shows\, adding to the legacy of East Coast f
olk while lighting a path for a new generation of music lovers. \;
Already internationally acknowledged as musical trailblazers\, on thei
r newest offering\, Schoonertown\, released January 23\, 2026\, The East P
ointers have come home. Equal parts origin story and statement of craft\,
Schoonertown captures the moments that shaped their youth: nights out with
the boys\, the dizzy romance of first love\, sprawling families and small
towns\, two weeks on in a bleak winter\, kitchen parties and vinyl record
s and tape decks\, every mistake\, every late night\, every long drive\, b
eer and cigarettes and fights\, laughing until you can&rsquo\;t breathe\,
ambition rising like a king tide\, the piss and vinegar of youth\, the sun
emerging so bright over the horizon you have to shield your eyes&ndash\;t
he devastation and exhilaration of all of it. \;
Since their de
but album\, Secret Victory\, took home the 2017 JUNO Award for Traditional
Album of the Year\, The East Pointers have cemented their place as a defi
ning voice in contemporary folk music. Their music\, streamed millions of
times over each month\, has been featured on television\, film\, and broad
cast\, and their acoustic performances on social media have been shared by
the likes of Ed Sheeran and Mumford &\; Sons. They regularly light up
stages across Australia\, Japan\, the UK\, Europe\, Mexico\, New Zealand\,
the USA\, and Canada\, and each fall they bring that energy back home to
Prince Edward Island\, where they host Goolaholla!\, a festival celebratin
g music\, community\, and the spirit of the East Coast.
