It’s been a while since we saw The Middle Coast perform at The Horseshoe Tavern and we were thrilled when we heard they’d be playing the Cavendish Beach Music Festival this year.

Not afraid to travel for a show, The Middle Coast will be on the Cavendish Farms Kitchen Stage on Sunday, July 10th. We caught up with the band via email and asked them a few questions about the festival and they were kind enough to answer.

Q. Is there one thing you’re most looking forward to about playing Cavendish Beach Music Festival?

The Middle Coast: We’ve heard great things about Cavendish through our many artist friends who’ve played it. Beautiful location, great music, East-coast hospitality, what’s not to love?

We were quite excited when we were booked for Cavendish – we’re not a Country act and we had never played out that way before, but we were definitely stoked. I believe I received word when I was playing a song live on the radio in Winnipeg, and it just popped up on my phone!

Q. If you were creating a summer playlist, what are the top three tunes?

The Middle Coast: This summer I’ve been digging the new Justin Timberlake, obviously Spirits by our home-grown Strumbellas, and I’ve been really into Paradise by Daniel Caesar.

Q. Who are you most excited to see at Cavendish?

The Middle Coast: On the main stage, probably Ricky Scaggs, on the Kitchen Stage we’re stoked to see River Town Saints!

Q. In 50 words or less, can you tell us and the fans what we can expect to see when you hit the stage at Cavendish?

The Middle Coast: You can expect some funky, hooky, harmonized jams played by three prairie boys who love to make people groove!
