ABOUT THIS EVENT

The Dakota Tavern welcomes back to its stage Cape Breton’s troubadour AARON MACDONALD, one of the East Coast’s most prolific and authentic songwriters, this time with 2 new albums in tow. Hailing from Mabou, a small town that beats in the musical heart of the island, this ECMA and Music Nova Scotia multi-nominated artist has a matured blend of country and rock that lovingly leans towards roots and blues. The songs seem familiar even when hearing them for the first time.

Back-to-back Americana Album of the Year nominations, a new live album, Song From A Hurricane, just released in January, and his studio album, It’s In My Blood, out this spring, Aaron MacDonald continues to show why he was one of the East Coast's premier and unique songwriters.

Aaron will be joined by the brilliant guitarist and special guest, GREG FAVARO, for this album release show.
