Cape Breton’s Mike McKenna Jr returns to Nova Scotia to play Lunenburg Folk Harbour Festival, Saturday, August 6 and announces Summer 2016 tour dates. August shows include Breton Brewing Co. Sydney, Aug. 12th,  Grimrose Brewery in Fredericton Aug 16th, plan b in Moncton Aug 17 and Le Cagibi in Montreal August 26th.

Mike McKenna Jr is a soulful and often haunting balladeer, with a unique grit and power in his voice, a folky rhythm to his guitar playing, and an authenticity of his stories that has captivated listeners in his native Maritimes and around the North American folk community.

Mike draws inspiration for his music from his native Cape Breton, a region known as much for its rugged and picturesque landscape as for its rich cultural legacy that includes 500-years of colonial history and the accumulated oral traditions of Celtic, Mi'kmaq, and Acadian storytelling. The nostalgia of the Cape Breton countryside can be heard in Take Me Home, the opening track of Mike’s latest album Travelin Man, and in the oil-workers ballad, Die in the West -- songs that idealise the cherished landscapes of home.
