Celtic Colours International Festival 2021
25th year for the CCIF out of Cape Breton Island. If you enjoy Celtic music you will love this! 9 days of live concerts. Free on YouTube and Facebook w/replays on YT till end October. Opening show was last night and what a show! At hour 1:08 or so, you can watch the most imaginative dance and claw-hammer banjo combo (yeah, unlikely mix but go watch!) followed by stellar musicianship by Scottish super group Capercaillie.
Well worth a look. I know what I’m doing for the next few days! https://celtic-colours.com/concerts/together-again/ |

This is last night’s show which might be of interest here since it’s all guitar (acoustic, mainly). It’s the CCIF’s 27th annual “Guitar Summit” featuring 4 terrific players. JP Cormier is especially interesting given what he can squeeze out of his stock Yamaha plugged in straight to a basic Fishman Loudbox. Their set starts at minute 47 or so with the introductions. Well worth a look. |

What a great festival to go see. In addition to the music, it's a beautiful area to visit. The Cabot Trail drive is a must see.
Great to see J.P. Cormier playing. He lives there. |

Great.
JP playing Gareth Pearson's Adrenaline Rush. Jp is one heck of a player and such a humble person for sure. Nice into giving Gareth Pearson some credit also. Brother john |

Gareth is a pretty special player, who is well worth checking out live when you get chance: sometimes a bit like TE on speed!!!

I watched some Lennie Gallant live yesterday. He's got a lot of energy and is an excellent performer.
