Friday’s Child is the potent musical union of singer-songwriter Krista Van Slingerland and multi-instrumentalist/engineer Evan Massey. The pair have been writing and performing together for seven years across multiple projects. Their bluegrass tune “Wildflower” was licensed for the feature film 115, directed by Dave Macon, in 2024.

 

In 2025, amidst their divorce, Krista and Evan recorded their first full-length album as Friday’s Child, raising $7,000 in 30 days via Kickstarter to fund the project. The duo’s debut single, “Fault Lines,” received Canadian radio airplay, and their appearance on the Kingston Live podcast (Episode #85)—exploring the origins of the project—became the show’s most-listened-to episode of 2025 on Spotify.

Friday’s Child delivers an intimate and powerful live Americana experience that hushes a room and connects deeply with audiences who value authenticity, lyrical depth, and musicianship. Building on the momentum of their full house show at The Broom Factory in Kingston, Ontario (July 2025), the duo is set to bring the music of Broken Home (Vol. 1) – debuting March 15 – to Southeastern Ontario this spring and summer.
