Madison Violet - is Lisa MacIsaac and Brenley MacEachern and 2025 marks the 25th anniversary of the band. A rare and impressive feat that they are both proud of and grateful for. The pair, who both have roots in rural Cape Breton, came together musically in the late 1990s. Influenced by their maritime heritage, Brenley and Lisa began creating music together that had roots firmly planted in their past, but with contemporary and modern elements generously overlaid.They have received dozens of notable accolades for their work, including a JUNO nomination for Roots & Traditional Album of the Year and a Canadian Folk Music Award for Best Vocal Group Album of the Year.
Their music is consistently played across Canada and throughout the world, and the internationally acclaimed artists are no strangers to receiving glowing reviews for both their studio work, and live performances.
DoubleSuede – opening for Madison Violet is DoubleSuede, a modern blending of the classic sounds of 50’s & 60’s Rock and Country. This duo features a hard to describe sound because you can’t believe it’s only two musicians performing. Casey Shalala is on the upright bass. With his unique slap and pop style he manages to be equal parts bassist and drummer. Recently seen on the hit tv show “Virgin River” Casey is a captivating presence that everyone remembers when the show is over. Matt Beatty is both the guitarist and vocalist. Matt’s vocals can tackle any style from Hank & Elvis to Tom Jones and Brian Setzer. “Calgary's DoubleSuede breathes new life into old-school country, rock and rockabilly.” The Calgary Herald
