Through the Looking Glass is a fully integrated, narrative-driven co-bill from Alex Mundy and Friday's Child — rooted in Americana, folk, and modern roots music, and presented as one continuous live experience.
Rather than separate sets, the evening unfolds as a shared musical journey, with both artists stepping in and out of each other's catalogues. Songs are reimagined and woven together to create a seamless arc — more like a carefully constructed story than a traditional concert lineup.
Inspired by the communal spirit of 1960s "Happenings," the show invites audiences to slow down, put their phones away, and fully inhabit the room. Warm harmonies, rich acoustic textures, and a western-tinged atmosphere frame an immersive experience built on presence, collaboration, and storytelling.
About the Artists:
A powerhouse writer with a story to tell, Alex Mundy is a roots-pop songwriter with a "raw and powerful" voice and a gift for turning lived experience into lyrical magic. Following a sold-out performance at the Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts in Kingston, this internationally recognized songwriter is taking her piano and her stories on the road as part of Through the Looking Glass.
Friday's Child — the musical partnership of Krista Van Slingerland and Evan Massey — creates intimate, harmony-rich Americana shaped by love, change, and resilience. Their debut record Broken Home (Vol. 1) traces shared history with unflinching honesty, and their live performances bring those stories into the room with warmth and depth.
This isn't just a concert. It's an evening of shared storytelling — a space to slow down, listen deeply, and remember you're not alone.
