Archive material and source history
Whitehorse is the Canadian folk duo of Melissa McClelland and Luke Doucet, who started working together in Toronto around 2005. Their first album came out in 2007, and they've put out records like 'Leave No Trace' in 2012, 'In the Shadow' in 2016, and 'I'm Not Crying, You're Crying' in 2019.
They've won a couple of Juno Awards for Roots & Traditional Album of the Year, in 2013 and again in 2017. Songs like 'Out Like a Lion' and 'Sweet Disaster' show their straightforward approach to writing and performing.
In 2018, Melissa McClelland was diagnosed with breast cancer. The duo has kept recording and touring since then, maintaining a steady presence without much fuss about their place in the scene.
