Drives the Common Man
Makin' Waves presented by Sydney Credit Union
Thur July 6th 2023

SYDNEY, NS! See you tomorrow! We play at 6pm!

Did you know that Cape Breton's fastest rising star, Morgan Toney, learned his craft as part of his Cape Breton University BACS Music program?

Before Morgan was a fiddler, he began as a drummer hailing from Wagmatcook First Nation. His CBU journey lead him to explore the many music traditions of Unama'ki/Cape Breton, and found him finding his voice on the fiddle. With teachers Stan Chapman and The Barra MacNeils' Kyle MacNeil, its no wonder his education has helped make him one of the most in demand artists on the East Coast right now.

Are you a CBU student or alumnus? Put on your orange and join us as we kick off Makin' Waves presented by Sydney Credit Union this Thursday with an Orange Out at Wentworth Park with Pretty Archie and Drives the Common Man!
