The
Masterless Men have paid their dues, working the
bars and community concert halls of the Southern
Shore and St. John’s.

graduated to the larger festivals and concert
halls around Newfoundland. Their much anticipated
second album “Breakin’ New Ground”, released
March 9th, 1996 was produced by Gabriel Award
winning producer Gary O’Driscoll. This album
builds on the success of their influences. "Back On
Track", released August 18th, 2000, is a
delightful, yet, powerful described as pleasantly
obscure. In March 22, 2002, they released “On
the Run”. The songs were selected are indicative
of some of the bands individual tastes. Irish
Ballads, pub tunes, country, rock and roll and the
ever present bluegrass influence. They have been
featured on several radio and television programs
and have performed at premiere festivals and
concerts to sell-out audiences throughout Atlantic
Canada, New England and south Florida. They have
received numerous critical reviews and have
appeared with such musical legends as Tommy Makem,

Together, The Masterless
Men deliver a highly unusual and unique fusion of
songs and music combining original, Celtic,
bluegrass, folk, and popular musical elements with
passion, precision, and professionalism.
