His latest release, The Evening Light, showcases stories he picked up while traveling.

Caspi has performed across Canada in a variety of venues, including cafes, theatres and the main stage at Nathan Phillips Square in Toronto. She’s also performed on VIA Rail’s long haul train from Montreal to Halifax.

Caspi’s sophomore release, Skyline, showcases her unique storytelling and guitar style.

During the show, the pair will follow a song-swap format that will see them performing together in the style of a folk festival workshop that includes collaboration and encourages spontaneity.
