Over the weekend

Robbie and Isaac Fraser returned for our Friday night ceilidh. They were joined by a bongo drummer from Florida who said playing at the ceilidh made his trip! Thanks!


Stan Chapman and Donnie Campbell played Saturday, and Mairi Thom dropped by and played beautiful Cape Breton tunes as well as some Scottish jigs. Originally from Scotland, Mairi is currently living in Baddeck working as a veterinarian.


Sunday was Andrew McFayden's CD release. Congrats, Andrew! Andrew has learned the Gaelic language ,songs and history from attending the Gaelic College at St.Ann's .
Dara Smith and Susan MacLean also played.

Andrew's web site http://www.grianmcbuttons.ca/ can be accessed for further dates and info.

One couple mentioned dining at the Baddeck Lobster Suppers, and they thoroughly enjoyed their meal.

See you at the ceilidh!
