Neil McDaniel, from Margaree Forks, holds true to his Irish heritage in his singing and performances on mandolin, guitar, banjo, whistles, and piano. Kevin LeVesconte is a fiddler and pianist from St. Peter’s who has been immersed in Cape Breton’s rich traditional music and culture his whole life. Tickets are on sale at the door between 5 and 7pm.
