Andrea Beaton, Troy MacGillivray, and Tracey MacNeil hail from the isolated beauty of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada. Their joyful style of dance music is defined by its improvised folk piano tradition. Expect instrument-switching, solo dancing, and inspiring harmonies, as they explore the traditional music of Ireland, Scotland, and Cape Breton, along with original compositions. Their performances offer a shared sense of fun and years of making music together.
Join us at a venue akin to the village halls where the musicians grew up. The evening will be introduced by radio hosts Dave Marlatt and Cara Lieurance of The Pure Drop on WMUK 102.1, celebrating its 20th anniversary of featuring music “from Ireland and beyond.”
