Summer festival season is in full swing, and we're still getting more details about the many events taking place across Canada. Take, for example, the Halifax Urban Folk Festival. It will be coming to the Nova Scotia capital from August 26 to September 3, and the organizers have announced the initial lineup.

Among the performs are Bry Webb (of Constantines fame), Daniel Romano, Danny Michel, Elliott Murphy, Ari Hest, Harlan Pepper, Graydon James & the Young Novelists, and Steve Poltz. There will also be a number of songwriter's circles, including one featuring Joel Plaskett.

These artists are all the ones performing at the Carleton. Other artists will be announced for stages at the Seahorse Tavern, Durty Nelly's, the Neptune Studio Theatre, the Argyle, the Economy Shoe Shop, and the Loose Cannon.

Tickets for the shows can be purchased over at the Carleton's website.
