An experienced performer on various national CBC radio and television programs, he had his own CBC Maritimes radio series on folklore and folkmusic. He toured Canada and the USA with the folk chorus The Privateers, and for five years performed with The Musical Friends - the house band of CBC's 'Sing-a-long-Jubilee,' of which he was a regular cast member for three years. For twelve seasons he performed and researched regional folk songs and folklore at Nova Scotia's Sherbrooke Village restoration site.
