Brent is an acclaimed fiddler from Sydney Mines, Cape Breton. With his Cheticamp connections, he spent a great deal of his time mentoring with Arthur Muise. Brent plays with the same vigor and style as Arthur, playing much of his tune repertoire infrequently heard by other players. His cuts are impressive and full of energy, and his impeccable timing has placed him in great demand for dances and ceilidhs.
