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

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.”
