A benefit concert for The Late Nathan Condon's 2 children was held on October 15, 2017 at Trinity United Church in Summerside, PEI. What an incredible benefit concert it was! Raising thousands of dollars with donations, 50/50 draw and a silent auction it was an event to remember with over 500 people attending.

Nathan was an outstanding fiddler, winning many MusicPEI nominations and awards, will be long remembered for his talent, including guitar playing and singing. He suddenly passed away on August 26, 2017 at the young age of 32. The PEI music industy were totally shocked with his passing. His last known performance was at the Tyne Valley Rock The Boat Festival on August 5 with The Ben Chase Band.

Atlantic Seabreeze was in total shock with Nathan's passing as we have been promoting him since his early beginnings in music, from his first CD entitled,A FEELING COMES OVER ME in 2002 to the present. He always had a special place in our hearts as he was such a likeable guy and such a talented musician.

Bluestreak-Cynthia MacLeod-Jon Matthews-Marlys Hamilton & Alexis MacLaren-Harold and Marnie Noye-Dave Wigmore-Michael Pendergast-Pete Banning-Long River Players-Not All There-Blu Gillis-Samantha MacKay-Rachel Campbell, Catherine and Jim Dixon-Eddy Quinn- Catherine MacLellan

Catherine MacLellan (Gene's daughter) closed the show and received a standing ovation.

This event will be long remembered as Nathan touched all those who attended.
