Cape Breton Music Roundup #27 - March 12 2015 - March 15 2015 and St. Patrick's Day
It's starting to look a little Irish out there with St. Patrick's Day right around the corner. In that vein we've decided to include Tuesday's St. Patrick's day event's in this roundup. We start off recommendations however on Thursday night in Sydney Mines with Cape Breton Country Workhorse, Michael Lloyd at the Firemen's Centre in Sydney Mines. We follow that up on Friday night with Cape Breton expats The Gold Coast returning to the Island with support from The High Tide and Danny MacNeil Band. If you are looking to make it a full evening and night at Governor's Buddy MacDonald will be hosting the after work party. Down the road at the Highland Arts Theatre is great show to get your St. Patrick's Day weekend rolling, Evans and Doherty will be kicking out some Irish classics to get your weekend going. Saturday has a great show, great cause event going on at the Sandbar Lounge in Dominion with Singing for Shelter, a fundraiser and awareness raising event for homelessness. Saturday is just littered with St. Patrick's Day events, we've listed what we have below including a great show with Rob MacLean, Buddy MacDonald and Cyril MacPhee at the Whycocomagh Waterfront Centre. We have a few shows listed for actual St. Paddy's day on Tuesday, check back often for updates and make sure to check out our Music Guide Cape Breton for our full listing of shows on St. Patrick's Day and throughout the week.
