The Karpinka Brothers

The Karpinka Brothers are a folk/pop duo based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, led by siblings Aaron and Shawn Karpinka. Their music blends elements of folk, rock, and pop, making them somewhat genre-defying. The brothers have released four albums, with their debut being "One Brick At A Time" in 2008. Their unique sound has been praised for its nostalgic and pastiche songwriting style, landing them a distinct place in the folk genre. Known for their fun and laid-back stage presence, The Karpinka Brothers have built a reputation as talented and engaging performers. Some of their notable releases include "Talk Is Cheap," "You Can Count On Me," and "There's a Light" .

Lenore Maier, known for her work with The Garrys, has also been involved with The Karpinka Brothers, occasionally playing guitar with them. However, the primary focus and spotlight remain on the sibling duo's folk and pop-rooted performances.
