The Living Roots Music Festival, Fredericton’s celebration of curated music and unlikely venues, is returning for their third iteration.

This year they aim to do it all over again and have announced their first headliners for 2018.

Music Video: Rich Aucoin’s ‘Release’ Is Classy Yet Meditative
It has been over three years now since Halifax’s Rich Aucoin released Ephemeral, and maybe for good reason. The amount of energy, creative or otherwise, that he’s invested into his projects go above and beyond.
