Yesterday, we told you that The Tragically Hip have decided to release a new album this summer. The Hip's new album, In Between Evolution, is slated for release on June 29, a couple of days before Canada Day. Although The Tragically Hip haven’t announced any tour dates yet, we do know that they're going to be performing a few festivals, including a headlining show at the Wasaga Beach Bluesfest on Sunday, July 11.
The Tragically Hip are just one of the bands included in the extensive musical lineup featured at the first-ever Wasaga Beach Bluesfest. This three-day concert runs from Friday, July 9 to Sunday, July 11 and features over 15 performers on two different stages. The music festival presents performers of various genres from blues and roots to popular forms of rock and alternative.
Starting on July 9, the Main Stage hosts famed blues artist Taj Mahal as well as T-Model Ford and Spam, among several others. Maple Blues Revue and The Funk Brothers (with Joan Osborne and Sam Moore), hit the Main Stage on July 10. On July 11, Roomful Of Blues, Colin Linden and David Gogo will take the stage, followed by The Tragically Hip, who will wrap up the show at 6 p.m.
The Wasaga Beach Bluesfest also presents a second stage called the Roots Stage, which showcases the likes of Reckless Kelly and The Bellrays.
Festival Passports are $45 and fancy Gold Circle Passes go for $85. Single day passes to the festival start at $15 for July 9, $20 for July 10 and $30 for July 11. Tickets for the festival go on sale this Saturday (May 8 ) at 10 a.m. and are available through Ticketmaster or select record stores.
