Caraluna

Salt Spring Island

Caraluna (“beloved moon” in Gaelic/Latin, “moon face” in Spanish) is a multilingual indie-folk/world band led by singer-songwriter Jesse Edward Thom. Blending Balkan-inspired trumpets, accordion, and pulsing rhythms with poetic lyricism, Caraluna’s shows move effortlessly from intimate, heart-opening moments to driving, high-energy grooves that turn rooms into dance floors. Rooted in travel, nature, and a spirit of sacred play, Caraluna invites audiences into a celebration that feels both timeless and alive.
