Welcome to my world... the digital part anyway. It’s kind of strange, but very exciting to be here. I can’t tell you how happy I am that you dropped by. Imagine if you planned a party, thought long and hard about the food, decorations and music and nobody showed up. That would really suck!
This site is all about my new CD right now. It also includes links to most of the wonderful Cape Breton artists who supported this project. I encourage you to check out their on line worlds as well.
I hope you take the time to listen to some of the audio clips from my CD on the site. OK, let’s be frank, I really hope that you buy the CD so I can record more of these incredible songs in the future.
Cheers, Max |

Mac-Using Troubadour Launches Comeback CD, Music Industry Software
By Charles Moore - LowEndMac
An old friend of mine, Nova Scotian musician Max MacDonald, recently released his first solo CD in his varied career as a singer, actor, songwriter, and entertainment manager.
Max was front man for the Cape Breton, NS based rock band Buddy and the Boys back in the '70s and early '80s, a mainstay in the touring music and comedy repertories "The Rise and Follies of Cape Breton" and "The Cape Breton Summertime Revue" from 1977 until 1995, and, as a principal in the entertainment promotion firm Rave Entertainment, founder and organizer of the fall Celtic Colours music festival from 1997 to 2008, which grew to an event featuring more than 400 performers.

Max MacDonald wearing several hats in Corner Brook, N.L
Max MacDonald certainly won't be cold with all the hats he'll be wearing at the East Coast Music Association's awards, festival and conference weekend later this month in Corner Brook, N.L.
A well-known figure in the island's entertainment scene, MacDonald recently began a new job at Sydney-based Marcato Digital, developing web-based software for the music industry, and last fall put out a solo CD, Songs of Home, which has earned him his first two ECMA music award nominations.
"I'm going there wearing a whole bunch of hats. I mean I'm going there certainly to support the Team Cape Breton ECMA group to promote the ECMA here next year. I'm also going wearing my Marcato Digital hat to talk to a lot of the international delegates about what we're doing, and I'll have a little beanie, a little artist cap too," said MacDonald. "It's going to be fun. It's going to be really exciting."

Songs of Home was officially released at an event at the Royal Cape Breton Yacht Club in late November. I was so pleased that the room was full, including a number of the writers who contributed to the CD. It was a terrific night!
Wendy Bergfeldt, from CBC, was also there recording some of the activity. CBC’s Island Echoes will be broadcasting some of the event action this Saturday, Jan. 10 @ 8:05 pm (AST). The show will also be available online by going to http://www.cbc.ca/islandechoes/
Cheers,
Max
