Jason Roach

Jason was a member of the multi-award winning Celtic supergroup Còig with whom he toured extensively. 

His bio on The Celtic Colours website stated: “Jason Roach is one of the most impressive piano players you will ever hear.” If he performs a solo, Jason can shift seamlessly from softly caressing the keys to intensely striking them, the whole while delighting traditionalists as well as those who favour innovation. His versatility and finesse make him an excellent complement to fiddlers at any level. A Chéticamp native,  Jason started playing piano when he five but was thirteen when he began playing the traditional Cape Breton style. He holds a Bachelor of Music degree from St. Francis Xavier University and released his own album in 2007, ten years after beginning to perform.
