Jordan Musycsyn (pronounced Musician) debut album, The Pitch, is highly anticipated by fans and music community alike. A masterful storyteller, Jordan writes songs about life and love with pathos and humour. Whether drawing on his own life experience with humour in songs such as, “GST,” “Mountain Fry Lullaby,” and “Winein’,” or his heavier songs of love and loss and the human condition, such as “Didn’t Back Then,” Runaway Lane,” and “Young Wanda,” Jordan moves the audience from laughter to tears and back again. 

Jordan’s band consists of Mike LeLievre (of Slowcoaster), Glen Bourgeois,  Jordan Bruleigh and Cape Breton picker PJ Confiant on guitar. The album also features Cape Bretons finest Colin Grant on Fiddle, Joe Waye on Pedal steel and Ben Furry on Mandolin.  The album was mixed and mastered by the award winning Jamie Foulds at Soundpark Studios in Sydney, Cape Breton.

His old school brand of Folk-Country has been compared to the likes of Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Tom Petty and John Prine. 

Jordan is touring in support of the release & kicks off the Maritime dates November 27th at The Carleton Music Bar in Halifax.

06 Sailor's Delight

Alexis MacIsaac and Calum MacKenzie are a wife and husband duo who have established a unique musical partnership that combines Cape Breton piano playing with a modern approach to Celtic fiddle. While Calum’s musical approach has been heavily influenced by his Hebridean roots and his native Cape Breton culture, Alexis’ playing is a multi-faceted harmonization of Irish, Scottish, and Cape Breton styles.

Though their respective approaches to music are distinct, together they create a clean and seamless sound that is nonetheless grounded in tradition. As a fiddle player, Alexis has performed throughout North America, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the United Arab Emirates with acts such as Riverdance, The High Kings, and The Paperboys, while Calum has been fortunate to play with, and accompany, many local Cape Breton artists and international musicians both at home and abroad in the Caribbean and in Scotland on piano and fiddle.

Their debut album, The Bay Street Sessions, is a compilation of original and traditional compositions and arrangements, infused with centuries-old feeling and contemporary flair: their mutual love for music articulated in each note and phrase from bow to key.
