Over The Moon (CAN)

Over The Moon

Over The Moon is a Juno-nominated Canadian treasure. Craig Bignell and Suzanne Levesque are a couple as well as band mates. Their banter, interplay and eye contact while they play clearly demonstrates their dedication to each other and to their craft, and that the stars pretty much aligned to put them together. For that we are grateful.

Some might call it country music, some might call it bluegrass, or western music, but with its accomplished songwriting, fantastic harmonies and great arrangements, we think it's just darned good music. Witty, engaging and catchy songs invite you in from the first measure, and this duo injects so much passion and skill into their songs, you’d be hard pressed to better them with a full band.

Suzanne’s clear and beautiful alto voice seems to echo the environment of the Alberta foothills, where the couple currently lives. Craig has spent much of his adulthood playing percussion and drums in other people’s bands. Drumming took him all over the world, but he was frustrated at the artistic limitations and wanted to develop his guitar and banjo playing. Meeting Suzanne was the spark he needed.

The couple are naturals on stage, clearly delighted to be there and interspersing entertaining, tongue-in-cheek banter with stories of their lives in the tiny village of Longview, Alberta. Guaranteed to win you over... don't miss this!
