Events Description
The meteoric ascension of Aleksi Campagne on the North American scene has been a long time coming. A Montreal-based indie-folk artist who adds loops to the already unique challenge of fiddle-singing, he began performing at age five alongside his mother, Connie Kaldor. At 21, Aleksi became the only student to have ever been accepted into the classical violin, jazz violin and the jazz voice performance programs at McGill University. Since then, Aleksi has wowed folk festivals from Mariposa to Canmore; and his stellar showcases turned heads at Folk Alliance International in Kansas City.
Over the Moon
There must be something in the water in the Southern Alberta ranchlands of the Rocky Mountain foothills. What else could explain how this small corner of the world spawned its own music genre, an amalgam of country, Celtic influences, cowboy culture and Western Swing? Maybe it’s chemistry. Speaking of which, ask vocalists and multi-instrumentalists Suzanne Levesque and Craig Bignell about how their duo and marriage trace back to a dinner party hosted by Tom Jackson. Or about how their neighbour, the late Ian Tyson, gifted them the title track of their debut CD, Moondancer (2017).
