Nothing like a good play on words to get an editor going on an idea with that play on words . Something with more fun for me to do…Photographers Picks.
After delaying, postponing, and telling Soundcheck that I was too busy, in all truth it was sorta fun. Here it is, a couple of my must sees at this year’s RBC Bluesfest.
As someone who grew up in the ’90s, my first 2 are definitely The Cult and of course the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

How would you want to spend a July long weekend in Ontario?  How about jammin’ out with some of North America’s top country acts?   Trackside Music Festival kicked off its inaugural year with a splash this past weekend in London, Ontario.  

It was a beauty of a day in London, Ontario when we had a chance to catch up with Chris Lane and chat about the success of FIX (Currently in the top 10 in both Canada & The US) as well as his new album.  Check out my chat with Chis below.

The weather was perfect, not too hot but also not too cold. The crowds were there in full force, one thing was clear Brockville came to party and veteran Canadian rocker Kim Mitchell did not disappoint.

So the fellas of Cold Creek County are set to hit the stage at CMT Music Fest.   We had a chance to ask a few questions about festival and pre-show rituals.  Check it out below.

We caught up with CMT Music Fest artist Andrew Hyatt and wanted to know a few things before he hit the stage on July 8th when he opens for Eric Church and Kip Moore in Kitchener, Ontario for CMT Music Fest’s inaugural party.   

Last weekend Burlington, Ontario played host to its annual Sound of Music Festival that takes place in the heart of Burlington.  This is Canada’s LARGEST Free music festival and boy does it rock.   This year they had the likes of I Mother Earth, July Talk, Jess Moskaluke and Mother Mother to name a few of the artists that performed to the thousands that came to soak up the tunes and the sunshine.

We had a chance to ask David John Roberts of Washboard Union a few questions before they light up the CMT Music Fest stage in our CMT Music Fest Artist Spotlight. 

For the 3^rd year in a row, Jason Blaine, hit a home run (wrong sport… hole in one?) with his annual Celebrity Classic Charity Golf Tournament. This year’s installment, held in his hometown of Pembroke, raised over $80,000 for local charities including Algonquin College, The Boys and Girls Club, and The Salvation Army. 

So this past weekend marked the start of the Sound of Music Festival with their 2nd Annual Kick Off Party.  The weather was hot, the beer was cold and the fans came out to support an amazing day of Rock & Roll.
