Fiddle & Folk Foliage Farewell at the Barn

The Barn Music and Theatre Society of Margaree will be holding their annual Fiddle and Folk Foliage Farewell, a weekend-long, all-ages music festival taking place October 23–25 in the beautiful Margaree Valley.

Neil McDaniel originates from Margaree Forks who has entertained audiences from the Maritimes to the Ottawa Valley and across the Atlantic to the West Coast of Ireland. McDaniel holds true to his Irish heritage which is evident in his singing and performances on mandolin, guitar, banjo, whistles, and piano. His lively shows encompass a well-flavoured recipe of music, headlining as a solo artist or with a band and always ready to bring on the tradition. Kevin LeVesconte is a fiddler and pianist from St. Peters who has been immersed in Cape Breton’s rich traditional music and culture his whole life. From kitchen parties to dance hall performances, LeVesconte’s dedication and abundant musicality has quickly captured the hearts and ears of listeners from near and far.
