As hard as it is to believe, our own fiddling phenom Ashley MacIsaac is turning 50 (yes, 50!) and is celebrating with two shows at The Carleton on Sunday, February 23rd (this one) and Monday, February 24th (his actual birthday). He will be accompanied by a couple of friends and show time is 7 PM. Tickets, while they last – are $45 + HST.
*** There will be standing room for these shows, so if you’d like to ensure a seat, the earlier you arrive, the better, or contact reservations@thecarleton.ca to organize a table ***
Cape Breton is in his DNA
Ashley MacIsaac plays the fiddle with an intensity, authenticity and passion that is impossible to deny. He learned his chops at an early age mentored by some of the legendary greats of the area, performing all over the Island in halls, clubs, barns and kitchens. Hi How Are You was released in the mid 90s and the accolades rolled in, the awards, the touring, the interviews and appearances, the persona took shape and the legend took hold.
FDLER is the latest commercial release by Ashley.
