Imaginary Expedition at Burdock Music Hall

Imaginary Expedition is a Toronto-based duo of Victoria Dobbs and Glyph Greenleaf who combine folk songwriting with early music composition techniques and intimate, unamplified performance practice. The ensemble draws people closer, quietly pushing the limits of what can be achieved with only their alto and baritone voices and a classical guitar. Their songs alternate between the lead vocalists, and gravitate toward duets with equal importance on both vocal lines.The name Imaginary Expedition reflects the experience the duo creates. Their songs spark daydreams and send listeners on journeys through memory, grief, gratitude, and self-reflection. Their lyrics journey through emotional terrain shaped by the vivid changing seasons of the North, with imagery drawn from great lakes, old-growth forests, open prairies, wetlands, shield rock, and luminous skies.Victoria and Glyph began writing together in August 2024 and performing together regularly in September 2025, after years of separate professional music careers. The duo has developed their live show and generated momentum through intimate listening rooms, festival stages, house concerts, and industry showcases. The duo has appeared at JP Music Festival in Boston (2025), and Toronto’s Winterfolk Blues + Roots Festival and Toronto Folk Festival (2026).Their debut singles “Winter Lullaby” and “The Ones Who Are Gone” capture the acoustic realism of sitting in a room with the performers, whose voices move in harmony and counterpoint with Glyph’s lap-style classical guitar. The songs, which explore how we carry the memories of those we have lost, have received airplay on folk and indie radio in Canada, the USA, and Australia. With the support of a FACTOR Artist Development grant the duo has begun production of a full-length album in the same live-off-the-floor format.
