The Backyard Betties are a 4-piece folk/Americana band based in Calgary, Alberta. Winners of the 2024 YYC Music Award for Folk Recording of the Year (The High), they deliver a heartfelt and high-energy live show filled with rich harmonies, captivating guitar work, and stories that linger long after the last note. Fronted by Nancy Laberge—whose witty banter and soul-baring songwriting anchor the group—the Betties blend humor, honesty, and musical chemistry to explore the deep stuff: love, loss, and life in all its beautiful messiness.
