Phase three of the New Glasgow Jubilee lineup is here, with things getting classic, and maybe a little electronic!
Two of Canada’s biggest 80’s hit makers, both still going strong, will hit the stage this year. Platinum Blonde took over the crowd in 2011, and fittingly return for the platinum anniversary of the Jubilee on Saturday, Aug 1. And Honeymoon Suite, another mega-hit maker from the 80’s, make their Jubilee debut on Friday, July 31.
Halifax rockers Gloryhound return on the heels of a memorable performance opening for The Sheepdogs in 2013, this time opening for The Trews.
Neon Dreams, an innovative EDM band from Halifax, take their electro, house-feel to the Main Stage for the first time, opening for Classified.
Halifax-based Christine Campbell Band, who has opened for Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band and most recently Jann Arden, will open for Steve Earle and the Dukes on Sunday, Aug 2.
Rounding out the anniversary lineup on the Main Stage are ECMA and Music NS Award winning pop/hip hop artist Ria Mae, Motown, soul funksters Roxy and the Underground Soul Sound, blues rocker Carson Downey Band and the high energy jam band The Fourth Well.
The Jubilee Late Night Stage at Acro Lounge features performances from Roxy and the Underground Soul Sound, Neon Dreams, Christine Campbell Band, Universal Soul, The Fourth Well and DJ Tlee and DJ Kyla.
“There truly is something for everyone in this year’s line-up,” said Executive Director Carlton Munroe. “We’re really pleased with the artists we have to showcase, new to our stage and returning favourites, and can’t wait to get the waves rocking on the East River July 31st to August 2nd”
