Over the Moon - TwickFolk at the Cabbage Patch, Twickenham

Sunday - Award-winning acoustic roots/swing duo Over the Moon plus John Statz.

Canadians Suzanne Levesque and Craig Bignell met, fell in love, got married and discovered their voices blend so well together that people often tear up upon hearing them sing.

Their music is a wild ride from 40's sounding western swing and Appalachian old-time, to cowboy blues

Their first CD "Moondancer", was released in 2017 and it reflects the beautiful two-part harmony style that they are known for and the wide array of acoustic instruments that they play. Most of the songs are original and tell stories of life lived in Southern Alberta's ranching country.
