Congrats to the Marshal Brothers on being part of this incredible celebration of Cape Breton's music industry legends! Going to be an amazing event.

LET THE CELEBRATION BEGIN — THE MARSHALL BROTHERS OPEN THE GALA!

We are thrilled to announce that THE MARSHALL BROTHERS will be performing the opening segment of this year's gala on June 18th at Centre 200 — setting the stage for an unforgettable evening at the Cape Breton Music Industry Hall of Fame!

Hailing from Eskasoni, Cape Breton, brothers Owen and Merle Marshall have been immersed in music since childhood, inspired by their father's band. Well-known across Unama'ki, the brothers are rapidly expanding their reach far beyond the region — and their star is rising fast.

Their musical journey took a major leap when they took part in the inaugural Mi'kmaq Artist Emergence Program, working alongside acclaimed producer (and fellow Hall of Fame performer!) Keith Mullins. Since then, they've showcased their talent at NS Music Week and recently lit up numerous events during the ECMAs in Sydney, capturing the attention of multiple festival organizers along the way.

There's no better way to launch a night celebrating Cape Breton's incredible musical heritage than with the energy, talent, and island spirit The Marshall Brothers bring to the stage.

The opening notes of a legendary night.

At Music on the Hill, we're excited to shine a spotlight on one of our incredibly talented artists, Christina Googoo!

Christina loves collaborating with fellow musicians, and she had an absolute blast working with the talented crew behind The Foundation - Cape Breton on this beautiful rendition of Lady Gaga's Always Remember Us This Way.

The Foundation is a unique Cape Breton music project made up of accomplished local musicians Les Huffman, Chris Livingstone, Carmen Giorno, John McPherson, and Jen MacDonald. Rather than performing live gigs, the group focuses on creating high-quality video productions featuring guest vocalists from across our island and beyond.

Their mission is simple but powerful: to support local artists, foster collaboration, and create professional-quality content that showcases the incredible musical talent found right here in Cape Breton. Through their YouTube and Facebook productions, The Foundation continues to build connections within the music community while giving artists a platform to share their voices.

We're grateful for projects like The Foundation that invest their time, talent, and creativity into helping Cape Breton musicians shine. If you enjoy this performance, be sure to check out and subscribe to their YouTube channel to discover more incredible collaborations and support local music:

Take a few minutes to enjoy this wonderful collaboration and see what happens when great musicians come together to create something special.
