Beautiful Life is the 3rd solo recording by Bruce and marks another evolution in the talents of this song writer from Sydney Mines, Cape Breton. Clearly his most personal work to date, Bruce was involved in every level of production on this recording, and stayed true to his convictions and artistic vision.
Along with his solo career, Bruce has also been, for the past eight years, lead singer for the Scottish super group - Runrig, which has a strong following in Europe and continues to grow internationally.
On top of being a gifted musician, Bruce has been seen by national audiences on CBC Television, acting as host of Songwriters Circle.
After all his achievements, Bruce remains as down-to-earth as when he first appeared on the Canadian music scene, writing truthfully and passionately about the world around him while leaving his audiences wanting more.
"It could be his voice. It could be his lyrics. Or perhaps it's both, but something about Bruce Guthro's songs burrows into your soul and doesn't let go."

Hi, found a GREAT note the other day at novascotialife, which I'd like to share with you and especially wish to offer same as German friend, too!
"quote" NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS
FRIENDS: Never ask for food. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Always bring the food. And lots of it.
FRIENDS: Will say 'hello'. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Will give you a big hug and a kiss. More than one.
FRIENDS: Call your parents Mr. And Mrs. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Call your parents Mom and Dad, and often.
FRIENDS: Have never seen you cry. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Cry with you. And for you.
FRIENDS: Will eat at your dinner table and leave. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Will spend hours there, talking, laughing, and just being together. Then do the dishes before leaving.
FRIENDS: Know a few things about you. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Could write a book with direct quotes from you. And most of the time know you better than you do yourself.
FRIENDS: Will leave you behind if that's what the crowd is doing. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Will kick the whole crowd's butt that left you. Then walk beside you in the front of the crowd.
FRIENDS: Would knock on your door. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Walk right in and say, 'I'm home!' If you are not home they will wait.
FRIENDS: Are for a while. NOVA SCOTIA FRIENDS: Are for life. And then some. "unquote"
