Contre vents et marées, le Sherbrooke & Folk a maintenu une programmation pendant la pandémie au grand bonheur des participants. Mais cette année était la première édition post-restrictions et on sentait la ferveur de la foule.

Even though it was day three and many were running on little to no sleep, concert goers arrived early and brought the energy to the final day of CBMF 2022.

Last night was my first night at RBC Bluesfest this summer having come down with COVID just before my debut was slightly delayed. Thankfully I was back on my feet and feeling good and made it down early and managed to stay for the full night and what a night it was. There was literally something for everyone at Bluesfest last night and the massive crowd definitely left happy.

The second day of Bluesfest was dedicated to those who sought to chill with Jack Johnson headlining and Tash Sultana stealing the show for many.

Day two of CBMF consisted of a heap of great music with a side of wind and pouring rain. Fans decked in rain ponchos braved the wet weather to take in artists on the main stage, while others took shelter under the tents of the Kitchen and Emerging Artists stages.

English musician, singer-songwriter, composer and co-founder of the progressive rock band Pink Floyd, Roger Waters, performed a sold out show at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.

RBC Ottawa Bluesfest gave its long-waiting faithful what they’ve been waiting for for years with a return to Lebreton Flats and a jam packed night of entertaining performances.

After a long two year hiatus, Cavendish Beach Music Festival is back in full swing and the fans couldn’t be happier. Country music enthusiasts from far and wide flocked to the sunny shores of Cavendish, Prince Edward Island for the sold out Thursday portion of the three day festival. With a main stage and two side stages, there is no shortage of music to be heard. 

No matter how much time moves on, the 80s refuse to die.

As I arrived for ABC’s concert at El Mocambo, the last time they visited Toronto was in 2009 when they played Pride, I saw two punk twentysomethings hanging out on the corner of College and Spadina. Siouxsie and the Banshees aren’t on the bill, I wanted to tell them. I should have just embraced them for looking so 80s.

This year marks the 155th anniversary of our nation and also the return to a live show in the capital after a few long years of pandemic restrictions!
