One of the most celebrated Canadian roots musicians of all time, Ashley MacIssac has garnered international acclaim by playing the fiddle in a hard-nosed, traditional Cape-Breton style, while adding his own spin, mixing genres and updating Celtic music to appeal to a broader spectrum of fans.
He will be performing live in the scenic Filberg Park Aug. 24, 2 as they celebrate 35 years of music in the park. A renowned fiddle player, piano player and step dancer, MacIsaac is a dynamic fiddler; he is constantly pushing the traditional styles of Celtic and incorporated rock, pop, and everything imaginable in between.
FDLER, Ashley’s latest project does just that, incorporating dance, electronic, celtic, pop and more.
