A night of lively alt-country, Canadiana and folk-pop with a dash of fiddle

APRIL MOON are a Canadian, alt-country duo that will be hosting what promises to be a special night of music and storytelling. They've invited along the talented Kirzy as a support act and special guest Becky Gilman on fiddle!

APRIL MOON and Kirzy co-wrote and released the sunshiny, folk-pop song 'Happy Place' while down in Fuerteventura during this past winter, which has been played on BBC Introducing and BBC Merseyside. This night offers the opportunity to see them play it live together for the first time in the UK.

The show will be held upstairs at the Arts Bar (Hope St) in Studio 3 (there's a small elevator if you need) which has such a lovely vibe! There are little tables with chairs and an upstairs bar so you can relax while we all enjoy a night of music and stories The venue is walking distance from the Central train station for anyone coming from out of town.

Hailing from the vast prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada, Jaime and Jason (APRIL MOON) fell in love with the UK while on tour with a previous band, and these days split their time between several countries during the year. 2023 saw the pair adopt full time vanlife to suit their nomadic ways. Jaime and Jason bring their boot-stompin' tunes to life onstage using two intertwining guitars, big vocal harmonies and a kick drum made from an old suitcase. APRIL MOON like to call their genre Canadiana - think Americana, but with a big helping of northern charm that oozes through their style of storytelling and lyrics, with topics ranging from love and scandal to living inside of an abandoned brewery, life on the road and cow autopsies.

Harry Kirzynowski (KIRZY) is a singer-songwriter from Brighton, UK and got his start busking on the street at the age of fourteen. Although he had planned on studying maths in uni, he fell in love with the people and landscape of Fuerteventura during gap year travels and started to play music full-time in local music venues.

Six years on and Kirzy’s played hundreds of shows in the Canaries, Europe, and released a variety of original songs and covers that have a modern, folk-pop sound and often touch on the themes of travel and wanderlust. He’s known for collaborations with a variety of artists and his stunning music videos which capture the beauty of the island he has come to call home.
