Canada’s internationally renowned virtuoso fiddlers Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy take their music to new heights with an all-new show. Bursting onto the music scene with exuberant youthful mastery, their two eldest children Mary Frances and Michael Leahy join their parents for a night of musical magic. Don’t miss this rare event this spring!
Celtic superstars MacMaster and Leahy have returned to the world stage for the first time since their marriage in 2000. In the early 2000s, they juggled raising seven musically gifted children, running a farm, and building a thriving farmers market in Lakefield, Ontario, while performing over 75 shows a year. With their children now in their teens, Natalie and Donnell are ready to bring their electrifying live performances back to audiences.
Natalie, known for her virtuosic skill and charm, was inducted into the Order of Canada in 2006, won 2 JUNO Awards, 19 East Coast Music Awards, and released 3 Gold Albums. Donnell, with his incredible stage presence, led the family band “Leahy” to Double-Platinum status, won 3 JUNO Awards, and was the subject of the Academy Award-winning documentary “The Leahys: Music Most of All.”
Together, they have sold out over 1000 shows in North America and collaborated with stars like Yo-Yo Ma, Michael McDonald, Allison Krauss, and Nickelback. They have also performed with The Chieftains, Faith Hill, Carlos Santana, Don Henley, and Béla Fleck. Despite their busy schedules, Natalie and Donnell remain must-see live performers, continuing their tireless touring.
