With music festival season approaching quickly I thought it only appropriate to kick things off with one of the more esoteric summer offerings. Even better, this one is practically in our own backyard.
Electric Eclectics, one of the most offbeat music festivals in Canada, has released the line-up of its fifth annual event, which will take place in Meaford, ON from July 30th to August 1st.
From the Electric Eclectics Website.

This is the first I have heard of the festival in Meaford. I do love festivals that celebrate music, film and art. It's a festival for the senses!
Isn't it great Barb? I had heard about the event last year but unfortunately after the fact. This looks pretty amazing and in a beautiful part of the region too. Might just have to take a day in! (Or two!) ;)
I don't know one of these bands.
Must be a Canadian thing...
