The fiddling duo have toured extensively over the years both together and separately, selling out venues across the continent. Widely recognized as one of the best Celtic fiddlers in the world, his high-energy playing style also makes him a highly popular performer. He is the oldest brother of the internationally acclaimed family musical group Leahy, winners of three JUNO Awards. Though acknowledging that she can be “a musical chameleon,” Natalie stresses that, above all else, “I play Cape Breton fiddle.”ĭonnell Leahy is no stranger to the awards podium himself. She has won two JUNO and eleven East Coast Music Awards and been nominated for a Grammy, and has collaborated with artists as diverse as Yo-Yo Ma (on the Grammy-winning album Songs of Joy & Peace), Alison Krauss, Jesse Cook, and Bela Fleck. Over a recording career now spanning 25 years, this Order of Canada recipient has released 11 albums that have notched sales of over 200,000 copies. To fans of fiddle music, Natalie MacMaster needs no introduction.

“I want it to stay with our fans throughout the holidays, and beyond.” “This tour is going to have an energy that goes beyond the duration of the show,” says Natalie Macmaster. With the duo accompanied by an incredible array of talented session musicians – and their entire family – A Celtic Family Christmas will guide you into the wonderful world of a true Cape Breton Christmas celebration.
