Cape Breton’s own Aaron MacDonald is bringing his gritty, soul-filled sound to AJ’s Pub on Saturday, May 16th!

His hit “Beaches and Bands” earned an ECMA nomination for Fan Choice Video of the Year, helping cement Aaron as one of the East Coast’s exciting rising country artists.

🎶🔥 LIVE AT AJ’S PUB – CANSO 🔥🎶

Straight out of Mabou, Cape Breton, Aaron MacDonald is bringing his signature East Coast sound to the stage for a night you won’t want to miss.

An ECMA-nominated singer-songwriter, Aaron MacDonald has been carving out a name across Atlantic Canada with a gritty, heartfelt blend of Americana, country, rock, and blues. His music captures the soul of small-town life—raw, honest, and deeply relatable—earning him recognition as one of CBC Music Searchlight’s Top 100 Emerging Artists and multiple Music Nova Scotia Week nominations for Americana/Bluegrass Recording of the Year.

From festival stages like the Stan Rogers Folk Festival to intimate venues across the East Coast, Aaron’s live show is where it all comes together—powerful vocals, real storytelling, and a sound that sticks with you long after the last note.

Now he’s bringing it to AJ’s Pub in Canso for one night only.
