Cape Breton fiddler Howie MacDonald is shown at his home in Westmount. The music room where he is sitting will become office space for his Celtic Counselling business, which is a new career path since concluding his masters in counselling psychology. GREG MCNEIL/CAPE BRETON POSTSYDNEY — After decades of being heard on stages near and far, it’s Howie MacDonald’s turn to listen as the well-known Cape Breton fiddler embarks on a second career as a counsellor.
“Cape Bretoners, you want to help people. When people are down and out, Maritimers, I suppose, are the people that want to help out and put their best foot forward. I guess it is an extension of all that, an extension of how you were brought up.” “Howie is a very kind person and he is very deep. He jokes a lot, as we know, but he is very deep and very generous,” she said.
A trip to his place on Monday to help get his office ready proved to her that he can never be too far away from his music.
