Harvest Jazz & Blues Festival

Fredericton's hottest weekend of the year sees the New Brunswick capital loosen its tie for free-flowing music and dancing in the tree-lined streets. Serious blues legends frequent the fest, but this year's lineup shows a slightly poppier turn with Sloan and Steven Paige headlining. Pro tip: If you go, don't miss musical powerhouse Matt Andersen, who may be the brightest blues star in the picture province.
