After two years of pandemic inspired alternative programming, Sappyfest is back this summer with an in person festival, taking place July 29th to 30th on Bridge Street in Sackville. A full list of artists and more information about the fest is available on their website, sappyfest.org.
Andrea Vincent recently took over as creative director of Sappyfest, coming from the Yukon, where she ran the Dawson City Music Festival for many years, and before that St. John's, where she helped found Lawnya Vawnya. CHMA called her up to find out more about her and the plans for this summer. Listen to that conversation here:
