Scott MacKay: Classic Country Reimagined

Rooted in the golden era of 1950s country, Scott MacKay brings a sound rich in nostalgia and timeless storytelling. His ECMA-winning album Stupid Cupid features 10 original tracks that blend twangy Telecasters, pedal steel guitars, and witty lyricism — offering a fresh take on classic country.

A multiple Calgary Music Award nominee and recognized contender in CBC’s Searchlight competition, Scott has now returned home to Prince Edward Island to continue sharing his distinctive style. For the Jubilee finale, he’ll perform songs from his acclaimed album along with some of his favourite Hank Williams tunes — a fitting nod to the show’s traditional spirit.

Keira Loane: A Voice with Heart

With roots in both PEI and Cape Breton, Keira Loane has become a standout voice in Atlantic Canadian country music. Known for her powerful vocals and heartfelt songwriting, she has performed as a solo artist and with her band Keira Loane & the Commons. Keira has also impressed audiences through her work with tribute acts such as Whirlwind (Lainey Wilson tribute), Southbound (Carrie Underwood tribute), and Quittin’ Time (Zach Bryan tribute).

Her recent single Blueberry Jam has been warmly received by fans, and her upcoming debut EP Last Words & Love Letters is set for release later this year. Previous releases Faith and High Horse continue to showcase her range and emotional depth — all of which will shine on stage at the Jubilee finale.

Blake Crockett: Truth in Songwriting

Blake Crockett has made his mark as lead singer, rhythm guitarist, and songwriter for the award-winning country rock band Old Stone Station. The group’s single Western Road gained local radio airplay and earned them the 2017 Music PEI Award for Country Recording of the Year for their album Hostile, Heartbroken and Homesick. Blake has since shared stages with Janet McGarry and Wildwood and now performs with the rising bluegrass group Bad Hoss, playing festivals and shows across the Island.

At the heart of everything he does, Blake remains a passionate singer-songwriter. His latest single, The Trouble With A Tulip, is now available on all major streaming platforms. Raised on classic country storytelling, Blake strives to bring the same honesty, heart, and emotion to his performances — and audiences can expect nothing less on the Island Jubilee stage.

A Celebration of Island Talent

The April 19 season finale will unite some of Prince Edward Island’s finest artists for an afternoon filled with heartfelt country music, cherished stories, and true Island pride. Backed by the dynamic Jubilee All Star Band, the performance will capture the signature warmth and charm that have made the Island Jubilee Old Time Radio Music Show a beloved tradition across the region. Representatives from the Queen Elizabeth Foundation will also be in attendance to present the guitar raffle prize and accept the funds raised by our fans throughout Season IV.
