When J.P. Cormier and Tim Edey took to the stage at the Membertou Trade and Convention Centre during Celtic Colours International Festival in 2019, nobody could have expected what was about to happen-possibly not even J.P. and Tim themselves. Sitting side by side, kind of facing each other with their guitars, they started picking and strumming at a tune, sort of taking turns at who was leading and who was following as they shifted into another tune, and then another, and then another after that, playfully mixing and matching trad tunes with jazz standards and the occasional folk song or movie theme thrown in, for the next 45 minutes! This six-and-a-half minute excerpt captures some of the magic of this “mighty medley”.
