Canadians In Space Live w/ The Local @ Alder

Canadians In Space are a musical comedy band from Barnsley who mix sharp humour with memorable, character-driven songs. Despite the name, they have never actually been to Canada (or space), which sets the tone for their playful and imaginative style.

The group have been finalists in the Musical Comedy Awards and winners of the Songs in the Key of Laugh contest. Their live shows feature warm storytelling, catchy melodies and a gentle, self-aware silliness that audiences quickly connect with.

Their releases, including Reindeer Games, They Call Him Ken Funworth, Submission and the remastered version of their debut Ad Finem Ultimum, show their knack for blending comedy with genuinely well-crafted music. Canadians In Space bring charm, laughs and a world of their own to every performance.

With Support from The Local are an indie folk group from the pubs of Stockport, known for writing heartfelt songs rooted in everyday life, friendship and the warm chaos of pub culture. What began as a small musical project in a local pub eventually grew into a fully fledged band, carrying the same charm and sincerity that inspired their earliest performances.

Their tunes mix gentle humour with genuine emotion, creating a style that feels both familiar and quietly distinctive. Live, The Local bring an easy connection with audiences, offering stories, melodies and moments that feel like they were lifted straight from a night out with good mates.
