Kue Varo and their band “The Only Hopes” are a rising force in the Canadian indie-rock scene. With a voice that’s equal parts ethereal and defiant, Varo channels personal evolution into raw, genre-bending songs that straddle mysticism, love, growth, and rebellion.
Their debut LP, Cowboy Witchcraft (2023) produced by Juno-winner Russell Broom, fuses desert-scorched art rock with haunted folk and dream-pop textures. The single “Furthest Place” charted in the Top 40 on the Canadian Alternative Rock charts, and the album hit #10 nationally on college and community radio.
