Typically an early sell-out, the Cow Bay Ceilidh has established itself as presenting a most entertaining mix of songs and tunes in the beautiful setting of Port Morien, a small seaside community where the only thing more magical than the view of the bay, is the community’s giving spirit, hospitality, and willingness to help out. Tonight’s Ceilidh is our first chance to see the exciting combination of Brighde Chaimbeul and Ross Ainslie, two of Scottish traditional music’s brightest stars, on pipes and whistles. J.P. Cormier and Ray Legere are more familiar faces and whether ripping through Celtic tunes or Bluegrass and Old- timey Country classics, their Cape Breton and New Brunswick Acadian roots inform an impressive mastery of stringed instruments. And the Young’uns will share traditional and original songs, a capella and in perfect-pitch harmony, from their native northeast England and beyond. We can only imagine what a finale these three groups will dream up together!
