Fiddlers' Sons
Fiddlers' Sons is an award winning Island folk music group. The band features storyteller, author and three time Music PEI Male Vocalist of the year Eddy Quinn, singer songwriter and guitarist John B Webster, fiddling veterinarian Dr Courtney Hogan-Chandler and multi-instrumentalist, singer and step dancer Keelin Wedge. Together the group plays a mix of Island music at it's best with lots of toe tapping tunes, local stories, heartfelt ballads and a few laughs for good measure.
Michael Pendergast
Local entertainer Michael Pendergast has played a party for five year olds and another for a one hundred and five year old on the same week and that doesn’t happen in many places outside of PEI. Proud of his Island roots, Mike loves the rhythm and stories of this province and that is reflected in his performing style and the songs he writes.
