Sheumas MacNeil

Cape Breton

Sheumas MacNeil, the eldest of six siblings who make up the Barra MacNeils, began playing piano at a very young age. He soon teamed up with his younger, fiddle-playing brother Kyle and the duo performed regularly at local square dances. Together they set the stage for what is now the Barra MacNeils. Sheumas studied music at Mount Allison University where he received his Bachelor of Music Major in Pipe Organ. Sheumas will be playing with Kyle, and with the rest of the family in The Barra MacNeils, during this year’s festival.
