Daniel Halen is a singer/songwriter hailing from Canada’s Yukon Territory who combines his formal classical guitar skills and love of traditional folk music into his songs. his music boasts mellifluous rhythmic textures and lyrical double-entendres while boldly stepping over the boundaries of traditional folk music. he interlaces alternative tunings with smooth poly rhythmic phrasing with a fluidity and adeptness of a refined classical guitarist, all the while weaving great stories and good sense of humour into the mix.

Chic Callas, the “Swiss Army Knife of musical instruments” (violin, piano, cello, mandolin, harmonica, bodhran,) also comes from a background of classical and folk music. Chic has played with spruce on top, the Whitehorse String Ensemble, The Gumboots, Celtic Tyde, the Whitehorse Chamber Choir and musical theatre groups Stuck in a Snow-Bank Theatre and several Guild Hall productions as an instrumentalist and musical director.
