Glen MacNeil is a singer/songwriter from Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada. Glen grew up on Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia, Canada where music is part of the cultural landscape. Glen's family home in Glencoe Station was a musical one and host to many kitchen parties. Those homestead hoedowns proved to be a strong influence for Glen. He would sit and watch his father play the guitar for hours while relatives sang their favourite old songs. At the age of fifteen, Glen joined his first band. This is where he tried his hand at writing and performed the first song he ever wrote in front of an appreciative hometown crowd. After moving to Ontario and landing a job, Glen started going to "open mic" nights to perform some original material and the songs were very well received. Glen has collaborated on many songs with good friend Russell Deveaux. Russell and Glen received three "Honourable Mentions" for their song "Across My Heart". Glen has had the honour of sharing the stage with such performers as "The Godfather of Celtic music", John Allan Cameron as well as James Keelaghan.
