Who Should I be Talking To?

I'm a former professional hockey trainer turned professional country music singer and I've picked four people to interview from 3 different areas in my life (personal, sport, and music) that I think most people will find interesting, inspirational, and motivating. The interviews of these four initial people showcase many of the inspiring experiences, successes, and advice that they have for the listener. In turn, I ask each of my guests to recommend a single person that they feel have a story that needs to be told... that the world needs to hear from ....someone that I need to be talking to. Each guest will be connected to the last by the final question of "Who should I be talking to?" and we will see if there truly are six degrees of separation if and when they all intertwine as the episodes reveal themselves.

Episode 30 - PEI's Nick Doneff weighs in on songwriting, moving to PEI, and more!

May 24, 2023 • Season 2 • Episode 30

Nick Doneff was born in Fort Erie, Ontario and has called Prince Edward Island home since 2013.

The Charlottetown-based musician and songwriter has become a staple within PEI’s musical landscape by way of his earnest songwriting, laid-back demeanour, and singular approach to the guitar. Tom Power, host of CBC’s “Q”, describes him as a cross between Joel Plaskett and John Prine and an artist that “you need to hear.”

Doneff is a musician’s musician; he is a past recipient of MusicPEI’s Musician of the Year award and occasionally works onstage with some of the island’s finest acts, including Tara MacLean, Liam Corcoran and is a member of indie rock band Two Hours Traffic.

Doneff released his sophomore LP, The Late August Days, in November of 2021. The 9-song album boasts contributions from Jim Creeggan (Barenaked Ladies), Mickey Raphael (Willie Nelson), Dave Haskett (Shawn Mendes), Catherine MacLellan, Union Duke, Aaron Comeau (Skydiggers), Blair Packham (The Jitters), and more.

“I listened in the back of the room and I noticed that the room was stone silent. You know, a packed bar hanging on his every word - you don’t hear that very often... So as soon as the show was over I bought a CD from him because I realized you needed to hear this, too.”

- Tom Power, CBC “Q”
