Over 30 musicians will hit the stage in Lunenburg over the next four days as the 27th annual Folk Harbour Festival gets underway Thursday. The festival features local music acts and musicians from away. This year will feature performances by Dave Gunning, Kim Stockwood, Garnet Rogers and many more. Communications Chair Nancy Wilson says the festival grabs people's attention.



One of the headliners this year includes Juno and East Coast music award-winning Ashley MacIsaac. Wilson says MacIsaac should draw a big crowd.
