In the Round with Khozie and friends this week will feature song writers Jason MacDonald, Eric Angus Whyte, Khozie, and a surprise guest. This will be a great evening. Each songwriter carries a different piece of Cape Breton musicianship. The Louisbourg playhouse theatre is a perfect venue for these songwriters rounds. We have a few more in the works with some amazing artists from Cape Breton, Nashville, and other corners of the Globe. Tickets are $25 tax included. Hope to see you there.
