MEREDITH MOON Besides playing traditional tunes often ‘non-traditionally’, Meredith presents a powerful, warbling voice and highly contemporary clawhammer banjo style which has gained acclaim within the international old-time and Americana music community. She is a multi-instrumentalist, incorporating finger-style/travis picking guitar, piano and lap dulcimer into her performances. Along with an endorsement from Gold Tone Music Group and a recent recording deal with True North Records/Linus Entertainment, Meredith Moon has been a regular in the north American folk music circuit for over a decade. In the last eight years, she has herself booked and toured Canada, Mexico, The United States, Central America, the UK and Europe. Beginning in her friend’s living rooms and DIY spaces, her audience evolved through the last decade to include festival dates, including Hillside Festival, Mariposa Folk Festival, Calgary Folk Festival, Salmon Arm Roots and Blues Festival, Highlands Festival, etc., and many theatre dates, with many milestones under her belt. Her first full-length album, “Forest Far Away” was released independently in May of 2018, and she released “Constellations” on True North Records/Linus Entertainment in March of 2023. Her second release garnered international acclaim, being nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award for Traditional Album of the Year, and was on the Folk Alliance International top 10 Album Chart two months running in April and May 2023.

JESSE CORRIGAN

Jesse Corrigan is the real deal: no pretense, no posturing, no claims of transcendental artistry here. It’s simply good words and good music. Weaving together thoughtful melodies with Narrative driven songs, Corrigan is someone you’ll want to keep your eye on. Together with some of the hottest players in Ontario, Corrigan puts on a show full of harmony-heavy heartbreak ballads, narrative epics, and telecaster fueled barnburners. Aside from his musical endeavours, Jesse is happiest when he is outside, whether it be enjoying the wilds of Canada, or practicing his trade as a carpenter. Wherever you find him, odds are you’ll find him singing.
