This well rounded performer’s show will feature a diverse range of talents from Ottawa-Valley style Celtic step dancing to classical and Celtic fiddling. First establishing Celtic Blaze in 2006, Cadman is backed by Jake Charron on piano and Charles James on double bass/bass guitar with emphasis on theatricality.

The show has toured all throughout North America, Asia, and the Middle East making Cadman world renowned.
