"Sex, drugs and Celtic music. There was a time when those words just didn't go together. But that was before Ashley MacIsaac," says the CBC. This unpredictable and wildly creative fiddler, a close cousin to Natalie MacMaster and a more distant one to Jack White, is at home anywhere from the rocky towns of his native Cape Breton Island to the Acropolis in Greece, where he performed a new work by minimalist composer Philip Glass at the 2004 Olympic Games. He does hell-for-leather Celtic punk, he does traditional tunes, he does dreamy, ambient music, he's an outspoken activist—in short, he's a fiddler for the 21st century. Except that he made one album that has no fiddle music at all. So join us to find out what's happening with the man who, all by himself, is the leading edge of Canadian Maritime music. Ashley now lives in Windsor, where he's talked about running for political office. Let's give him an Ark welcome to the greater Detroit area!
