QUOTE THE RAVEN - COCHRANE HOUSE CONCERTS
2025-11-14 20:00 - 23:00 | 64 Sundown Way Cochrane, AB, 64 Sundown Way, Cochrane
Those of you who have been attending Cochrane House Concerts for a while will recognize the band as this will be their third time to Cochrane! Honestly, we were a little surprised when Jordan and Kristen reached out to play again, because it feels like they’ve outgrown our little series, winning major awards and playing major festivals in Europe and North America. Be sure to secure your seat with a $25 per ticket e-Transfer to tickets@willowspringsss.com now as this may be your last opportunity to see them in a small venue. And remember, as always, all the funds going directly to the musicians.

Quote the Raven, the acclaimed Canadian duo of Jordan Coaker and Kirsten Rodden-Clarke, have been enchanting audiences with their haunting harmonies and sharp wit for over a decade. Originating from Newfoundland and Labrador, their unique blend of Americana and East Coast folk has garnered them widespread recognition.

Their sophomore album, “Can’t Hold the Light,” which delves into the lives of working musicians, won the 2022 East Coast Music Award (ECMA) for Contemporary Roots Recording of the Year and received two Canadian Folk Music Award nominations. The duo has also been honoured as Music Newfoundland & Labrador’s Group of the Year in 2019, 2021, and 2022.

In 2025, Quote the Raven received multiple ECMA nominations, including Album of the Year for their upcoming release, Map the Dark, and Roots Release of the Year for their single “Already Gone.”

As of 2025, Quote the Raven has achieved over one and a half million streams across various platforms, reflecting their growing international appeal. With a dynamic stage presence, the duo has performed extensively across Canada and internationally, including tours in Australia, the UK and US. They have showcased at prominent events such as Folk Alliance International, AmericanaFest and AmericanaFestUK, Your Roots Are Showing in Ireland, and the Northeast Regional Folk Alliance (NERFA). Their engaging performances and authentic storytelling continue to captivate listeners worldwide.

We’re going to take a little break over December and January for hockey season, but we’ll be back with Lynne Hanson, February 20, 2026, Suzie Ungerleider (with Ben Sures and Matt Patershuk) March 12, 2026, and Iona Lane, March 28, 2026. More details about each of these shows, as well as some we’re planning in the summer, should be available early in the New Year.

Jessie Dans is a Canadian singer-songwriter based in Calgary, Alberta. She began sharing her music publicly in January 2024 with the release of her debut single, “Weight I Bare,” introducing a raw and emotional sound rooted in vulnerability and personal experience.
What started as a personal outlet has grown into a powerful artistic voice. Jessie creates music to connect—with herself and others—through honest storytelling and expressive lyricism. She collaborates closely with Los Angeles-based producer Connie Ryan of Loft 4 Studios, and spends countless hours in the studio with Calgary producer Made On Mars, shaping the sound of her upcoming EP, “Tom Ford.” A full-length album is also in the works, scheduled for release in early 2026.
With over 5,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, Jessie is quickly gaining momentum in the Canadian music scene. Her music draws from moments of pain, reflection, and emotional complexity, often blurring the line between poetry and melody. Constantly exploring new genres and sonic textures, she continues to evolve as a dynamic voice in contemporary music.
Opening with Miarlequin:

Miarlequin is a casual interdimensional traveler who happens to be a whimsical music artist. Stuck between worlds, she tries her best to be an inter dimensional troubadour. Crossing her fingers she does not end up in an alternate dimension where there is no life on earth.
Inspired by various artists amongst different dimensions, including Mitski, Pyotr Illyich Tchaikovsky, Punc the singing Platypus and Steve. She vows to write her truth into music and thinks hard day and night to write lyrics she finds appropriate for expression.
Her first memory of a favourite food is jello, this event happened before any interdimensional traveling ever transpired. Short on words but never on melodies, writing music became the preferred method of communication for Miarlequin.
