Fleur MainvilleMy Rare One -- Fleur Mainville's fourth album release -- is an rolling adventure of old school fiddle prowess and surging rock energy.
Her boldness to mix driving mainstream beats with traditional fiddle licks has created an audaciously intriguing and alluring album. Whether it is her haunting bluegrass folk vocals or her catchy re-inventions of melodies, Fleur Mainville joyously rewrites the book on what fiddle music can be.
The Days of MacKeel
Before graduating from Pictou Academy as Valedictorian of her class she became the 6th member of Pictou County's celtic rock group MacKeel. She played the acoustic fiddle as well as a five string yellow electric Vector violin. Contributing with background vocals, her energetic stage performances allowed her to tour all over North America with the sensational music group.
With the release of MacKeel's debut CD Plaid, the group was nominated for two East Coast Music Awards and in 1996 Plaid was given the title by Sam the Record Man as the highest independent selling CD in the Maritimes. Joining the management team of Jones' and Co. in 1998, they received an A&M record deal with Turtle Music Records. MacKeel is still credited with taking Celtic music to the next level. Their performances included sharing the stage with such artists as The Barenaked Ladies, Junk House, Great Big Sea, Tea Party, The Irish Descendents, Rawlin's Cross, Natalie MacMaster, Leahy, The Mahone's, Seven Nations, The Tragically Hip, Crash Test Dummies, Ashley MacIsaac, Honeymoon Suite, Barney Bental, Glass Tiger, The Rankin Family, Mary Jane Lamond, Clandestine and The Barra MacNeil's to name a few.
In 1999 they secured a record deal in the United States and then a publishing deal with Belmure publishing. MacKeel performed on Canada AM, The Dini Petty Show, Mike Bullard, Much Music and more. The album Plaid was re-released and the music video for "Star of the County Down" did well on rotation on both Much Music and CMT. "Heaved Away" was also used during two episodes of Dawson's Creek and the band's popularity grew to a large fan base in the United States. In 2002 the band parted ways and Fleur Mainville began her solo career. Her debut independent CD Finding Treasures was recorded by Dave Gunning in the Wee House of Music. Her fan base has grown to include followers from all over the world. She has toured with many groups and continues to perform as a solo artist and as a contributing musician with groups such as Dave Gunning, Steve Bower's, Kilt, The Stadacona Band, George Canyon.... and has provided her talent to many recording artists such as Dave Gunning, JohnSpyder MacDonald, Maurice Poirier, Steve Bowers, Rudy, and others. She has continued to share the stage with many artists and is in high demand as a performer who can play in many different styles and with a flare on stage that demands attention and recognition. Fleur was nominated for the 2008 Rock Star Award for the Pictou County Tourist Association and was a feature performer in showcases and in the finale of the Nova Scotia Music Week Gala Awards Show withGeorge Canyon and Dave Gunning in November 2008. She is the third member of the newest female trio to come out of Pictou County, Ferrona. Sandra DeCoste-MacMaster and Lynn DeCoste have an eclectic, folk rock sound with original compositions and are performing around Nova Scotia. Her original tunes are now being used by HBO and by other fiddlers from all over. Fleur Mainville shows no sign of slowing down.
