Five Minutes With: Montréal Folk Duo Endray

Based in Montreal, Andrée-Anne and Gabriel have honed their craft by performing across the city’s vibrant music scene. With experience spanning various genres and styles, they bring a wealth of knowledge and versatility to their shared creative process. Their synergy as collaborators has been shaped by years of working together in different capacities, ultimately leading to the formation of Endray.

What sets Endray apart is their commitment to authenticity and simplicity. On a spontaneous decision to create together, the duo embarked on a songwriting journey with a clear vision: to stay true to themselves while embracing a minimalistic approach. Their music reflects raw emotion, honest storytelling, and a deep connection to the human experience, resonating with listeners who value sincerity and artistry.

Through stripped-down arrangements and heartfelt lyrics, Endray offers a refreshing take on modern folk music. Their work invites audiences into an intimate musical space where simplicity becomes a powerful tool for expression. Their self-titled EP ‘Endray’ just came out everywhere on April 4, 2025.
