Cape Breton Music Roundup #33 - April 23 2015 - April 25 2015
Greetings Once Again! As we inch ever closer to the Summer months, the live music keeps heating up right along with the weather. We've got another excellent weekend to close out April, starting on Thursday night at Governor's. If you're getting your weekend off to an early start check out this great Songwriters Circle with Carmen Townsend, Jordan Musycsyn and John Paul Bergeron. Kicking off our Friday recommendations is the always excellent live performance of Signal Hill who will be at the Main Event. Sydney has a couple of great rock shows on Friday. Governor's has the hot lineup of The Jaynes, Hash Jesus and Keith Doom and The Wrecking Crew. Meanwhile, over at Embers, we've got Long Island Road along with Blair Lucas and the Apple Corps. Good luck with that choice, although really, you can't go wrong with either. Our Saturday starts off with a Matinee recommendation in Baddeck at the Bras d'Or Yacht Club with Buddy Mac Donald. Right after that you can head on towards West Mabou for our top recommendation of the weekend with the "Thank You West Mabou" show in, of course, West Mabou at the Hall. This is going to be one heck of night with performers including Wendy MacIssac, Tracey Dares MacNeil, Rodney MacDonald, Rachel Davis, Patrick Gillis, Nuallan and more! Check below for our full list of performers. If you're in the Central Cape Breton area or need a reason to visit, check out the final installment in The Songbird Series for the 2014/2015 season. As always this is an intimate show with limited tickets and highly, highly recommended. For "An Evening of Sonic Delights" in Sydney, check out the show with the same name at the Highland Arts Theatre featuring Redshed, Jordan Musycsyn and John Paul and the Grassfire. Whoa! What a way to end April. As always check out Music Guide Cape Breton for the information on live music for the next seven days across the Island.
