Born and raised in Halifax, Nova Scotia, MacDonald got his start as a songwriter while attending UCCB in Sydney. Like many Maritimers before him, he moved west to Calgary in the late 80's looking for a change. In moving away, he discovered the importance of his roots, his history and his love for the Maritimes. He speaks to those things in his music but the emotion and honesty of his songs is real no matter where you're from.
MacDonald has an energy that envelops the listener and allows a sincere connection. Live, MacDonald captivates audiences with his gravel-edged voice, disarming stage presence and easy rapport. MacDonald sings songs that just get under your skin and stay there.
