Every October, the Re-Jigged Festival in Nova Scotia hosts the best and brightest musicians. In 2019, we all fell under the enchantment of Irish musician Cormac Begley who came to us from Ireland, bringing with him 7 concertinas. In our premier episode, you can listen to Cormac muse over cultural DNA, the musical influence of his famous family, and his artistic path.
