July 14th, 2011 Ceilidh

The second ceilidh of the Chestico Museum’s 2011 summer ceilidh series was held on July 14th. We were excited to have Kinnon and Betty Lou as our fiddler and piano player. They were certainly enjoyed by all!

Stanley MacNeil played the harmonica and was accompanied by Bill MacDonald on guitar. Stanley also showed off his step dancing ability, walzed with Marie  Aucoin and he and Bill had us all in stitches with their comedy routine!

Marie Aucoin, accompanied by Bill, treated us to some Irish and Cape Breton songs and Hughie, who accompanied himself on guitar, also impressed with his fine voice.

With such a strong group of talent, our ceilidh ran a bit long – but no one minded a bit!

Our Facebook page has an album of photos from the evening. You can view them here.

There is also a video.
