Craig Bignell and Suzanne Levesque will present Over the Moon.

KIPLING - The  Kipling and District Arts Council will welcome Canadian roots-swing duo Over the Moon on March 11 at 7:30 p.m. to perform at the Kipling Community Centre.

This performing duo is immersed in real cowboy country.  When you set up home in the foothills of Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, it’s inevitable there will be a strong sense of place and the rhythms of the land when you start to play music.

Their music is a wild ride from ‘40s western swing and Appalachian old-time music, to cowboy blues, all featuring their meant-to-be vocals and a wide array of acoustic instruments. 

Suzanne Levesque and Craig Bignell are both award-winning, multi-instrumentalists and vocalists that have spent most of their lives as studio and live performance musicians for other artists.

After discovering their near perfect blend of voices, often moving people to tears upon hearing them sing together, they decided to try their own project and Over the Moon was born.

Simple and sweet, their music and lyrics have a common thread that speaks of the Canadian west.

Levesque and Bignall treat their audiences like a living room full of close friends coming over for a night of music and fun stories.  They are very down to earth, rural people.  Chatting with people after the show is a highlight for them, and at most shows, they end up leaving town with a collection of new friends. You can check out their music on YouTube or at

The show will be at the Kipling Community Centre.  This is the last show of the season for the Kipling and District Arts Council, so the arts council urges patrons to use up their season tickets.  Advance tickets are available at Balfour Pharmacy or for $25.  Price at the door is $30.  Students 13-18 will be admitted for $10.  Children 12 and under are admitted free when accompanied by an adult.

Tickets will be on sale that evening for next year’s series of concerts, with three shows for $70.  These tickets may be purchased that evening or after March 11 at . A draw will be made for all tickets purchased before May 1 for a chance to win your ticket money back.  For more information call 306-736-2263.
