Biography
Based on their name alone, The Goddamsels aren't your grandparents' idea of country music. Formed out of the longstanding friendship between Alberta-based singer/songwriters Mallory Chipman and Freddi MacDougall, The Goddamsels write songs with strong, empowering messages, blended with elements of folk, pop and traditional country, all tied together by their stunning instinctive harmonies. Their signature sound, which has drawn comparison to acts like The Chicks or Fleetwood Mac, can be heard on their debut album, Wayward Daughter, and subsequent singles. They were nominated for the 2023 Roots Artist of the Year at the Country Music Alberta Awards and completed a staggering 60-date tour across Canada, as well as made their European tour debut in early 2024. The Goddamsels are currently living and creating on Treaty Six Territory & Unceded Kanien'kehà:ka Territory where Indigenous people and communities have been making music for millenia.
