“Sometimes I think that Delaney’s Dad is the most important song of the year. Because of the simplicity and honesty of Moira & Claire’s special vocal delivery, it just seems like an overdue eleventh commandment for inter- generational respect, kindness, and courage”

Moira & Claire: Born on one side of Canada and now living on another, Halifax, Nova Scotia’s Moira & Claire write lighthearted, indie folk-pop songs that appeal to East and West Coasters and everyone in between. The sisters have been singing together for longer than their professional careers, their voices harmonizing in the kind of familial magic that only living together your entire life can attain.
“We’re two sisters that couldn’t stop singing after discovering that harmony is a thing”
Their debut project “I’m not usually this forward but…” was nominated for three 2023 East Coast Music Awards (Group Recording of The Year, Rising Star Recording of The Year, and TD’s Fan’s Choice Video of The Year) as well as two 2023 Music Nova Scotia Awards (New Artist Recording of The Year, Contemporary Roots Recording of The Year). Most recently, their song Delaney’s Dad, an anthem for today’s queer youth, was nominated for Single Of The Year at The Canadian Folk Awards.
