April Moon
Combining irresistibly charming, boot-stompin’ tunes with intertwined twangy and jangly guitars, powerful vocal harmonies and a kick drum made from an old suitcase, Jaime April and Jason Moon make up the UK-based duo APRIL MOON. Known for their lively, feel-good shows, unique take on 70s, 80s & 90s covers and fun, well crafted songwriting, they make a formidable duo. Growing up on the prairies beside the North Saskatchewan River in Canada, embracing the open road became a necessity to travel between venues and the pair haven’t put down roots since, splitting their time between several countries a year and living out of a cool campervan they call ‘The Clubhouse’.
APRIL MOON call their genre Canadiana – think Americana, but with a big helping of northern charm that oozes through their style of kooky storytelling and lyrics, creating a vivid, sunshine-filled world that covers everything from love, scandal and divorce to life on the prairies, living in an abandoned brewery, cow autopsies, and the nomad life.
Regular hosts, Milton Hide (who open and close the evening) and Neil Povey will be there and we’ll also have some wonderful floor performers. Please email info@bluebellroots.co.uk if you would like to play
A FEW THINGS TO NOTE:
- PLEASE arrive by 6 ready for a 6.15 start
- This is a Pass The Hat event. In other words – there isn’t a ticket price, but we do expect a generous donation. We suggest a donation of £12 per person. Having said that, to avoid our events becoming elitist, our ethos has always been ‘pay what you can afford’. Please bring cash on the night.
- There will be delicious homemade food available to buy @£12.50 per person from Philippa on the night. Please bring card or cash. (Please make sure you give us food preferences for each guest IN ADVANCE), or you can bring your own snacks.
- Booking is limited to 4 per order – contact us if you’d like to book for more
- BRING YOUR OWN DRINK – THERE IS NO BAR! and PLEASE TAKE YOUR EMPTIES HOME.
- It will really help us if you bring your own glasses, plates and cutlery so that nobody is having to wash up 30-60 settings when we’re done! 🙂
- Our new venue is bigger – we’ll need more people to make the atmosphere cosy like the kitchen, so we’d love you to encourage your friends to come!
