	Music of Nova Scotia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Music is a part of the warp and weft of the fabric of Nova Scotia's cultural life.
		Nova Scotia's folk music is characteristically Scottish in character, and traditions from Scotland are kept very traditional in form, in some cases more so than in Scotland.
		Nova Scotia was briefly colonized by Scottish settlers in 1620, though by 1624 the Scottish settlers had been removed by treaty and the area was turned over to the French until the mid-1700s.

	Moreau: Nova Scotia - PopMatters Music Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Moreau’s Nova Scotia is so full of syrupy, coma-inducing piano playing that it borders on impossible to make it through the entire record without either nodding off or getting so frustrated that you yank the album from the CD player and launch it at the wall with the ferocity of a steroid-dropping frisbee golfer.
		McKahey doesn’t deserve mention in the same sentence; he sounds like, on any given night, he might be the best performer at his karaoke bar, but his singing is neither resonant nor relevant, and to label it as such is to grossly hyperbolize.
		Nova Scotia is mixed in such a way that suggests it was recorded on two tracks: one for McKahey’s voice, and one for the rest of the band.

	The Amazing Music of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Cape Breton music is compelling dance music, and as such it is; and dance the Cape Bretoners do, with their low-to-the-floor, intricate step-dancing, a style that disappeared from Scotland decades ago.
		Music is the glue that holds the Cape Bretoners together as communities, and is central to their identities as Cape Bretoners.
		Cape Breton is represented by Jerry Holland, Buddy MacMaster and Natalie MacMaster on fiddle accompanied by Hilda Chiasson and Mary Jessie MacDonald on piano.

	Amazon.com: Nova Scotia: Music: Cousteau (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		It was sink or swim, and we decided to swim.' While 'Nova Scotia' is undoubtedly a Cousteau record, possessing McKahey's trademark Scott Walker-esque baritone and Robin Brown's distinctive atmospheric lines, it does perhaps signal a subtle shift away from a Bacharach-ian pop sensibility to a rawer, more rock-borne sound.
		The first time I listened to "Nova Scotia," I was initially a little let down in that I had waited three years to hear again from Cousteau and was expecting that usual Cousteau sound.
		I went into listening to it with the expectation that it couldn't be good without the contributions of Davy Ray Moor.
