Daniel James MacFayden w. Kieran Campbell @ The Aviary!

Down By The River Festival Presents: Daniel James MacFayden w. Kieran Campbell @ The Aviary! $20 advance // $25 @ the door. Doors @ 730. he Glad I’m Dead Tour marks the beginning of a new chapter for Daniel James McFadyen, celebrating his anticipated new record, The Garden. Spanning only 13 dates across Canada, the tour is built as his most ambitious live show to date, featuring a carefully designed full-band production. Following the success of his award-winning previous work, The Garden finds McFadyen moving into a colder, dreamier and more nostalgic sound. The record explores rebirth, change and starting over, moving through love, loss, memory and the strange beauty of becoming someone new. The Glad I’m Dead Tour brings that world to the stage — a limited run of shows built around the songs, stories and atmosphere of The Garden. Join Daniel James McFadyen and his band for one of 13 shows across Canada. Joining McFadyen on select dates is Kieran Campbell, a folk singer-songwriter based in Tofino, Canada, who draws from the rich songwriting traditions of Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zandt and John Prine to create modern folk classics. His latest EP, OK Buddy, was released in 2025, and he is currently writing new music set for release later in 2026.
