Description

With an homage to the pulsing piano melodies and indelible electric guitar riffs of classic pop-rock, The Great Fuss capture a generational collision of old-school Brit pop vibes with contemporary indie rock influences. A whirlwind of kaleidoscopic rhythms, lyrics and riffs, earworm their way into your consciousness (Tinnitist 2024). 

A long standing act in Saskatoon’s music scene, The Great Fuss, have steadily built a reputation for their emotive and energetic performances. Their visibly joyful approach to music have made them a desirable opening act for many internationally-acclaimed acts in 2024, including Steven Page (The Barenaked Ladies), Chris Murphy (Sloan), Five Alarm Funk and Wide Mouth Mason while performing many summer festivals including Ness Creek Music Festival, Lakeside Music Festival, Haywire Music Festival and Doylefest.

The Great Fuss entered into the music scene in 2015. Drawing musical inspiration from artists like The Beatles, Spoon and The Kinks, the band released two full-length albums The Great Fuss (2018) and Late Quakes (2022) and their EP Root Thyself! (2019).
