Cape Breton’s Men of the Deeps chorus invites you to celebrate 60 years of music, storytelling and camaraderie. The world-famous miners have spent the last 60 years on large and small stages all over the globe together, preserving the past and lighting the way forward. Prepare to enjoy two uplifting hours of songs, stories, belly laughs and maybe even a step or two. You’ll hear new renditions of old favourites, old renditions of new favourites, original compositions never heard before and more! Featuring selections from their brand-new 2026 song collection, Diamond Sunset, which boasts a compilation of old and new songs, paying tribute to a rich history. The Men of the Deeps For nearly sixty years, Cape Breton’s Men of the Deeps choir have been travelling the world as Canadian ambassadors, singing and storytelling to give us a sense of what life was like for a miner and his family in a mining town. Preserving our unique Cape Breton history, folklore, culture and talent. The choir has toured throughout Canada and most of the United States, China and Kosovo. They have been to the Northwest Territories and as far south as Arizona, Alabama, Florida and the Appalachian coal mining communities of Kentucky, Virginia and Pennsylvania. They have even performed in Las Vegas, Nevada. Today, The Men of the Deeps are so much more than just a singing group; they are a social institution. The camaraderie amongst the members carries over to their audiences wherever they perform. Clad in authentic mining coveralls and hard hats, they make an impressive impact when they enter a concert hall in total darkness using only the lamps on their helmets for light. “…the most amazing concert I have ever been to!” -Sandra M., Guysborough, N.S. “Best show I have seen in a long time!! So very talented. I enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you!” – Lynn Maclellan, Cape Breton, N.S. “The men sing with so much passion, making every concert a heartfelt night of song and stories that is so enjoyable!” – Jean & Dennis M., Sydney, N.S.
