Dandelion Highway

Craving modern Folk music uniquely steeped in Irish and Canadian singer-songwriter traditions? Then dive into the world of Dandelion Highway formed in 2023 by musical duo Kayleigh McGavock and Chris Sytnyk.

Born and raised in Waterford, Ireland, McGavock is a soulful folk singer with a uniquely creative approach to the guitar. Sytnyk is a Canadian touring and session musician who has shared the stage and studio with some of Canada’s biggest musical acts. The two artists began collaborating after attending a concert for Irish singer CMAT together and realizing they shared a love for Irish Folk Songs, puppies and grapefruit tea.

The duo has been perfecting their live show at Ontario venues and festivals such as Mariposa Folk Emerging Artists Showcase, Departure Festival Sundown Sessions, NXNE and Buskerfest. Last fall they appeared on CCMT TV Talent which aired nationally on City TV.

Dandelion Highway’s debut 5 song E.P. The Crossing was recorded with Canadian producer, musician and composer Ron Lopata (Jacksoul, Jully Black, Lindi Ortega) and was released in early 2025.
