Cassie and Maggie (NS)
Last at the Club in 2015, Nova Scotia sibling duo Cassie and Maggie McDonald honour us with a return visit to share their passion: spirited traditional and contemporary Celtic music and step dancing. Anchored by Cassie’s soaring fiddle and Maggie’s hard-driving acoustic guitar, they sing in English and Gaelic; and their toe-tapping rhythms will keep you bouncing in your seats all night. Awards and nominations include a 2017 CFMA for their 2016 album The Willow Collection, as well as a 2018 JUNO nomination for Traditional Roots Album of the Year. Entertaining and technically proficient, Cassie and Maggie are superstars in the world of Celtic music, as attested by their heavy international and domestic touring schedule. www.cassieandmaggie.com

Band leader. Honky-tonk hero. Survivor and singer of cautionary tales. Leading light of the Calgary music scene for decades, Tom Phillips is a renowned songwriter and bandleader (formerly with the Men of Constant Sorrow and more recently with the D.T.s (Difficult Transitions)).
Ever cheated on a lover, driven home drunk, been bucked off your horse, or been the last person in the bar when the lights came up? If you’ve been stranded on the highway, woken up in the wrong bed, walked home barefoot in a ball gown in the morning rain, or wished you could have a do-over for any of these choices, Phillips has a song for you. www.tomphillipsmusic.com
