The band will be joined by one of P.E.I.’s most decorated stepdancer­s, Janelle Banks.

Fiddlers’ Sons have been awarded numerous Music P.E.I. awards and have become one of the most popular groups around the Island. The group was originally the idea of lead singer Quinn of Cardigan, who performed regularly in a country/rock band.

Admission is $10 at the door. 50/50 tickets will be on sale and strawberry jam from the fiddler’s field and souvenir ceilidh shirts will also be available.
