COVID-19: Update for Travellers Learn More
Please join us as we welcome Slowcoaster to our stage in beautiful Mabou, Cape Breton on Saturday, July 20. This show is part of our exciting 2019 summer festival, Currents! Our stage is transformed into the most intimate, up-close and personal event you’ll ever attend. Musicians and the audience are all together in one space for an unforgettable experience!
With infectious and captivating lyrics, reinforced by a commanding groove, Slowcoaster takes you on a ride to the heart of the party with no apologies. Throwing down their high-energy danceable tunes, the Cape Breton trio fuses ska, reggae, hip hop, and classic house influences with their unique brand of funky rock and roll. Having spent the past ten years infiltrating the Canadian live music scene, Slowcoaster has firmly established themselves as one of the country’s most popular jam rock bands.
CURRENTS will feature some of Nova Scotia’s most exciting up and coming musicians, representing a variety of genres from Nova Scotia’s diverse music scene. Enjoy a local cash bar featuring Nova Scotia brews including Big Spruce, Breton Brewing, Marble Mountain wines and Glenora Distillery’s finest whisky products. The event is open to all ages.
