SUMMARY:Lucy MacNeil & Band
DESCRIPTION:Lucy has been performing with the Barra MacNeils for 37 years. They come from a long tradition of Cape Breton music and dance that has been the foundation of creative pursuits over their musical career.\nAlongside her brothers she has travelled to Europe\, Scotland\, England\, Wales\,Ireland\, the United States\, Barbados\, throughout Canada from Fogo Island\, Nfld. To Iqualuit and a northern Quebec community\, Puvirnituq.\nThe Barras recorded their first self titled album in 1986 and have continued making music\, touring and recording throughout the years. During the 1990’s they were signed with record label Poly Dor and Opened for Celine Dion\, Kenny Rogers and were special guests on two of Rita MacNeils’ Christmas specials. \nThe Barras made several appearances on Rita MacNeil’s CBC variety show from 94-97. In 2005 were guests on Rita’s beloved National Christmas tour in Canada. After separating ways with their label years later they continued on with recording and touring. Their lastest album is “On the Bright Side” recorded in 2017. \nIn 2015 Lucy was one of the artists in residence for the “Celtic Colours International Music Festival”. Here she was paired with Liz Doherty from Buncrana\, Ireland to help select musicians and musical selections together for performances during the festival. It was a wonderful experience for both Lucy and the audiences who came to Celtic Colours and those that watched the online streaming shows. \nIn 2014 and 2017 Lucy was a special guest with Symphony Nova Scotia for their Rita MacNeil tribute concert. Here she performed with conductor Scott MacMillan\, Symphony Nova Scotia and The Men of the Deeps. \nDuring the pandemic which was a very quiet time for many Lucy started working on a solo album. Something she had wanted to do but the time never presented itself. She also felt in these uncertain times watching a world that was going through immense change and upheaval she wanted to leave something behind of herself and her lifetime attachment to traditional music and song.
