With a terrific summer of music and festivals delivering great times these past few weeks, the inaugural MUSIC MASH FESTIVAL in beautiful community of Westlock, AB promises to put a big exclamation mark on the events calendar for the summer of 2022.

The Sam Roberts Band headlined the 11th Annual Beaumont Blues & Roots Festival Saturday with a marathon set.  Known as “Canada’s biggest little music festival”, the festival has always featured a 100% Canadian line up with about 50% being female artists.

It was a sweltering weekend in Oro-Medonte and the weather wasn’t the only thing that was hot. With an attendance upwards of 40,000 people (a 5,000 person increase from last years inaugural event) WayHome was the place to be.

Cool temperatures and wet weather couldn’t stop a good time at Cavendish Beach Music Festival 2016!

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.

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.
