I don’t know what mother nature has against country music this summer but I’m starting to see a pattern here. Festival Country de Lotbinière, it rained. Country night 1 featuring Eric Church, it rained and delayed the gates by 2 hours nearly threatening the night’s entertainment. Country Night 2, last night…it rained delaying the gates by 2 hours nearly threatening the night’s entertainment…anyone else see the pattern here? In all three cases the show was able to go on and country music fans came out in large numbers to party, country style.
Ottawa Bluesfest Picks – Week 1
Twas the night before Bluesfest and all through the house not a creature was stirring not even a mouse. The grounds are all ready, the stages are set in hopes that the music will soon be here. The fans are nestled all snug in their beds; While visions of music and lights danced in their heads. It all kicks off tomorrow afternoon and here are my picks for week #1!

While researching for a preview piece leading up to tomorrow’s believed 2015 line-up announcement for RBC Royal Bank Ottawa Bluesfest I came across the 2015 Ottawa Bluesfest website via a Google search. Based on information we had been told leading up to today there were enough constancies to make us believe this is was the real thing. ***Update: The information below was confirmed by an official announcement by Ottawa Bluesfest posted at the bottom of this article***
