Celtic- duo Cassie and Maggie MacDonald Come to the EOH The Earlville Opera House is thrilled to host an evening with celtic-duo Cassie and Maggie MacDonald. Fun, exciting, charming and talented Cassie and Maggie MacDonald are a dynamic duo who have emerged onto the Celtic music scene as the ones to watch. Born in Halifax, with strong roots in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, the girls have been wowing audiences across the world with their unique blend of original and traditional Celtic music. Cassie’s fiddle playing has been described as “sweet and elegant with just the right amount of raw power” while Maggie’s piano playing has an irresistible drive that will leave your foot incapable of staying still and complements Cassie’s playing perfectly. Together these delightful sisters bring more than your average fiddle and piano duo; Cassie is an award winning highland and step dancer and also sings harmony for Maggie. In addition to her piano playing, Maggie sings lead, plays guitar, banjo, accordion and is also an accomplished step dancer. Their music fits together seamlessly encompassing various styles from Cape Breton reels to Antigonish polkas learned from their grandfather, Quebecois fiddling and footwork to downeast standards. Their vocal harmonies are sweet yet powerful and their step dancing exact and exciting, showing off their youthful charm and energy. Cassie and Maggie MacDonald will perform at the Earlville Opera House September 22 at 8 PM. Tickets are $20 general, $15 members, and $10 students/youth, with premiums applying in the first 4 rows.
