Daniel James McFadyen + Kelly McMichael

Doors 7:30 PM
Show 8 PM  
With Kelly McMichael

Award-winning indie-folk artist Daniel James McFadyen continues to evolve with his
latest single, “Landmine,” the first release from his anticipated 2025 album.
Recorded with close friends in a rented cabin on British Columbia's Shuswap Lake,
the song captures a raw, Americana-inspired sound that brings new depth to
McFadyen's work. Known for his interactive shows, McFadyen’s tours across
Canada have sold out iconic venues, including Toronto’s Great Hall and Halifax’s
Marquee Ballroom, drawing fans into his vivid storytelling and charismatic
performances.

In 2023, McFadyen’s award-winning EP, Songs to Show Your Friends, marked a
creative leap from his “stomp and holler” folk roots to more intricate, melody-driven
compositions. Produced by Montreal’s Quinn Bachand, the EP delves into themes of
love, loss, adventure, and home. With Landmine setting the stage, McFadyen’s
music continues to explore new sounds and stories, cementing his place in Canada’s
folk and indie scenes.

In November 2024, McFadyen won three awards at the Music NS awards—the most
awards received at the event—a testament to his continued growth and connection
with listeners.

Kelly McMichael is an alternative artist and producer known for her buttery vocals, genre-bending arrangements and commanding stage presence. Kelly’s ‘instant-classic’ songwriting blends retro pop/rock with hints of psychedelia and jazz. 

Based in Newfoundland, originally from Peterborough, Ontario, McMichael’s independently-released debut album, 'Waves' (2021), earned a spot on the shortlist for the prestigious Polaris Music Prize, and the ECMA for 'Best Rock Recording'. Her sophomore album 'After The Sting Of It' (2024), made the Long List for the Polaris Music Prize.
