Listen to The East Pointers in session for World on 3

The East Pointers came together on Prince Edward Island in Canada's Atlantic Maritimes. Cousins Tim Chaisson (fiddle) and Koady Chaisson (banjo), who were born on the island, found themselves joined in regular informal kitchen parties by guitarist Jake Charron - it wasn't long before they decided to make a go of a band. They offer a fresh, youthful take on the area's traditional music.
