My apologies for not putting my name to my original post regarding Ashley being a two headed beast. Anyway I just wanted to add two things. First there is a Cape Breton mailing list which discusses maritime/canadian folk music. I think if you e-mail cb-music@chatsubo.com you should be able to find out how to subscribe. Secondly regarding tim's comment regarding Natalie MacMaster as playing "nothing but the Cape Breton style" that really is not true. Her music is as radical (and more so in some ways than Ashley's). She has incorporated Texas Swing, Irish, Bluegrass, C&W etc. into her playing and has done so in such a way that it appears she really isn't doing much to the music. I love her music and I think what she is doing is interesting but she definitely doesn't play strictly Cape Breton music. If you wan't strictly CB music from some of the younger players active today try Wendy MacIssac (Ashley's cousin), Brenda Stubbert, Jackie Dunn, Stephanie Wills, Kendra Macgillivary etc. who all have Cd's available.
