ANNOUNCING THE 2024 BUCKET GIG!
You comin back to see Whiskey Jack?

11/14/2023

Howdy from the farm. For the 200 or so who showed up at this year's Bucket Gig, you'll remember, Dan MacDonald, fiddle. Well here's a wee gig that Dan is doing in the city! All of my favourite instruments in one night!

Immerse yourself in the sonorous fusion of Celtic and Brass as three of the city’s finest traditional musicians join forces with the dynamic and innovative Toronto Brass Quintet. With expert musicianship and contagious energy, they seamlessly blend the distinct sounds of bagpipes, fiddle, and banjo with the powerful brass instruments. Witness the incredible synergy of these contrasting musical styles as North Atlantic Drift and the Toronto Brass Quintet create a unique and unforgettable concert experience for audiences of all ages.
