What happens when you have a multi platinum selling headliner, then you add multi platinum selling support act, and then add a relatively “new” act embarking on his first national tour? You get an overload to the audio/visual senses! Mariana’s Trench, in full stride on their Never Say Die national tour held their fans in the palm of their hands Friday night at the jam packed Molson Centre in Barrie, Ontario.

The 2016 Vans Warped Tour lineup was supposed to be announced this coming Tuesday (March 22) but it’s entirely possible that someone beat them to the punch…no it wasn’t us this time 🙂

Seems that this one is catching on.. Lots of requests to add some of our readers stuff so next week I will put together a list of some of the suggestions I have been getting.   But with the big announcement this week with Lucknow Music in the Fields I thought I would pick my top songs from each of the artists on the lineup.  So here they are:

Ottawa (Wednesday, March 16, 2016) – This year’s 36^th annual TD Ottawa Jazz Festival takes over Confederation Park and the National Arts Centre from June 22^nd – July 3^rd with dozens of concerts from one of our most musically diverse lineups ever.

Monday night in Kitchener Johnny Reid brought the What Loves All About Tour to the Centre in The Square.  Getting a chance to see Johnny in the beautiful venue was a treat as I think the last time I was in the venue was to see the Tragically hip 4 years ago.  The 2,000 seat venue was packed for his second performance in as many nights in the city. 

Until today Ottawa’s own RBC Royal Bank Bluesfest had the lineup of the summer, then just after noon on Tuesday March 15 the Festival d’été de Quebec dropped a bombshell lineup that includes some of the biggest names under the sun.

Looks like this year’s end of the summer bash in Lucknow, Ontario is setting up to be one heck of a party.  And we are happy to be a part of it this year.  Over the last couple years we have reported on how great an event has been but this year we are partnering with Lucknow to bring you unprecedented coverage to one of the best parties in Ontario this summer.   So here is your 2016 Line Up….

Every month The Algonquin Students’ Association presents an Intimate and Acoustic evening, this month the event will feature Sean McCann of Great Big Sea, Pat Maloney, and Ken Yates live in the Algonquin Commons Theatre!

In case you needed another reason to head up Highway 17 to Mattawa this summer, the lineup for the 2016 Mattawa Voyageur Days just got a little stronger, this morning the lineup for the Friday’s country night was announced.
