Ottawa Jazz Festival 2016 starts today! LET'S GO!!!

Ottawa Jazz Festival 2016 starts TODAY!! JazzFest is most certainly one of Ottawa's primo live events. While other large events continue to deteriorate into crappy commercialism and just plain bad sound, JazzFest continues to be really interesting, varied, and highly worthy of real listening. A must-do event every year, for sure. For today's Loosely Connected adventure, we'll dig into past, present, and some hopeful future JazzFest artists. GO SEE LIVE MUSIC!!

Based on time, probably it was Esmerine, or maybe Two Generations of Brubeck (top of the set). Esmirine at JazzFest Jun30, should be GREAT!.
