Larlee Creek Hullabaloo is returning from August 8th to 12th to deliver a healthy dose of art and music to mid-western New Brunswick once again. Held annually in Perth-Andover, Hullabaloo brings art, music and culture to the western frontier of New Brunswick.
Designed to highlight Atlantic Canadian pride amongst artists and attendees alike, Hullabaloo carefully constructs a culturally diverse lineup of artists that celebrate their heritage and experiences through their work. It is a place where local, regional and Atlantic Canadian music are all promoted. This year’s headlining act is Rosaireville-born folk star Lisa LeBlanc, who has sold over 130,000 albums across North America and Europe. With her debut album being certified platinum by Music Canada, LeBlanc is sure to turn some heads at this year’s festival.
The full lineup this year also Ghost of Paul Revere, Còig, Garrett Mason, Tomato/Tomato, The Gary Sappier Blues Band, Terry Whelan, Dan Doiron, Kendra Gale, MonkeyJunk, Sean McCann, Rachel Beck, Pretty Archie, Caleb Johnson, Kelsey Saulis, Emilio Bonnell, Morohubu, Cunningham Haines, and Full-Throttle Folk.
“I’m so thrilled about the artists we have coming, these are some of the most exciting up-and-coming live acts in North America. I also think we’ve really captured the pulse of what makes the East Coast so unique this year and I’m thrilled with the representation we’ve got hitting the stage; from Chiac to Celtic, First Nations to Folk. This is East Coast,” says Hullabaloo organizer Heidi Baird.
Festival-goers will have access to food and artisan vendors as well as a beautiful view of the Saint John river throughout the five days. The festival will also be offering a shuttle service to as far as 15 km from the site and, for those of age, a licensed area for drinks.
