Dane Pedersen is a singer, songwriter, and actor from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. He has performed in a wide range of capacities and settings, from coffeehouse fundraisers to professional theatrical productions.  

Currently in his fourth year of a Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies at St. Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, where he is majoring in Vocal studies, Dane is becoming a regular on the Cape Breton and Antigonish music scenes.  However, he still makes appearances on the stage of the Highland Arts Theatre in Sydney, most recently in A Tribute to the Rotary Show (2023), and The Sea Shanty (2023). Lately, he has been appearing in the band Moment's Notice , made up of some friends also in the St. F.X. Jazz Studies program.

It is obvious to all who hear him that Dane's love for folk music runs deep, and in his own performances he strives to uphold and continue the East Coast tradition of storytelling through song.
