Husband and wife duo, Denis and Lynae Dufresne formed PEAR in 2006 after headlining international fiddle sensation Barrage. This talented duo, who have become perennial favourites at festivals throughout North America and Europe, are thrilled to announce the much anticipated release of their first, full length, studio album: Sweet N Gritty. This 13 track debut features collaborations with a few musical heroes and a number of good friends and was produced on Nashville's famed Music Row by Noah Gordon. "It's our personalities, our attitude, our sound. Nothing describes us better than this!" says Denis. The upcoming single, Never Lookin Back, is a deliciously upbeat song of hope that leaves listeners hungry for more. The thirteen infectious tracks stand testament to the duos love and passion for great music.
