Event
A Wild Mountain Time
From the deepest roots of Canada and its very earliest musical traditions come Nova Scotian sisters Cassie and Maggie, putting their own 21st Century stamp on the Celtic soundtrack of this nation. Exciting and innovative, their talent is surpassed only by the sheer joy they exude in performance. Alternating between Gaelic and English, traditional and contemporary, haunting and electrifying, the duo is nothing short of mesmerizing.
One of the most unique and captivating groups to surface out of Atlantic Canada in recent years, Inn Echo is a Prince Edward Island based band who has been enchanting audiences locally and abroad since their debut in 2018. Innovative, creatively-crafted, and what Roots Music Canada coins as a powerful sound, the soundscape laid down by this instrumental group is both wildly dynamic and delightfully distinctive.
You might think that two maritime acts so embedded in traditional music would have a long personal history together, meeting at festivals and sessions, sharing tunes and stories. But the truth is much more surprising. It wasn't until both artists were called up for a whirlwind tour of Austria and Switzerland that they all properly met. The 14th Scottish Colours tour in fall, 2021 brought Cassie and Maggie Macdonald and Inn Echo together far from their homelands. In the two and a half weeks between introductions at the Munich airport and farewells in Vienna, Cassie, Maggie, Tom, Tuli and Karson made a musical connection in the last place they expected.
Wild Mountain Time is the first live gathering of these two groups on Canadian soil. It is the result of five North American traditional musicians who found common ground high up in Europe's Alps. Their stories will take you from familiar coasts to misty peaks and their music will remind you of just how connected we all are along the way. Expect powerful tunes, enchanting songs and plenty of moments when you can't help but stomp your feet and let out a good ol' "yip!".
