Gillian Head

Cape Breton

Gillian Head is a fiddler with a sound that exemplifies the spirit and drive of traditional Cape Breton music. Her most recent release, Tidal (2018), received award nominations from both Music Nova Scotia and the East Coast Music Association, and was described as being  “…so alive and powerful, flat out fun fiddling that there is no way you can keep from falling in love with it.” by the Irish American News. When not performing, Gillian teaches fiddle and step dance at École de musique Raveston in Chéticamp, Nova Scotia.
