Leon Dubinsky is a Canadian actor, theatre director and composer from Sydney, Nova Scotia. He first became prominent in music with the regional touring band Buddy and the Boys in the 1970s and 1980s, and launched an annual musical stage revue, The Rise and Follies of Cape Breton, in the early 1980s. A song from that show, "Rise Again", became a Canadian pop music standard when the folk music group The Rankin Family recorded it for their 1993 album North Country; their version was a cross-format hit, reaching the Top 20 on Canada's RPM pop and adult contemporary charts and the Top 40 on the magazine's country charts. The song was also later performed and recorded by Rita MacNeil and Anne Murray.
