Three Little Birds

Hosted by Aidan Mayes

Sophisticated songstress, Aidan Mayes reveals an earnest heart, bursting with beautiful, beaming light for everyone experiencing her soulful voice. A folk songsmith forged from nostalgic 90’s alternative pop and Lilith Fair roots, her lyrics carry bold expressions of loss, love, great adventures, and dreams of an even better life. A classically trained foundation gives Aidan the core confidence to explore Joni Mitchell-esque alternate tunings full of ethereal edge and a full sensory supply of sweet soaring vocals accompanied by expert level organic instrumentation. All the emotions poetically flow.

Claire Coupland

There is a pureness to Claire Coupland’s voice that can silence a room.  A moving songwriter and compelling guitarist, Claire combines her smooth signature folk finger picking, jazz influenced progressions and soaring melodies. With a powerful yet tender vocal delivery comparable to Eva Cassidy and Susan Tedeschi, Claire has been relentlessly touring her new album and drawing audiences in to her intimate and heart wrenching performances. Her new album “New Light” delivers carefully crafted, darker and more vulnerable reckonings of self worth, escaping abuse, painful goodbyes, fragile family dynamics and hope for the future. After joining forces with Juno award winning musician Sam Weber (Bahamas) and some of LA’s finest musicians (Dawes, Alan Hampton), the album presents fresh and spontaneous arrangements of her songs with mood filled percussion, slinky guitars, sparkling piano and shades of grunge and California rock. Claire Coupland brings a graceful contemporary feel to indie folk music, always with a touch of her “wicked sense of humour” (Rik Emmett, Triumph). Her music has been receiving steady on CBC Radio Canada and BBC UK.
