As with most jazz festivals these days, the Halifax Jazz Festival features way more than just its namesake genre. This year's 36th edition, which ran from July 13 to 17, included artists from all over, including hip-hop, soul, R&B, pop and rock, with East Coast stalwarts and rising stars joined by their contemporaries from all over Canada and the rest of the world. Here's who we saw this year:
