Bluesfest 2009: Day 3

Wow, the festival just keeps getting better.

This night had a strong American indie folk/rock/alternative vibe, except for one local act representing Ottawa. For once, I actually stayed for full sets instead of running between stages.

The acts I saw were:

The Dodos

Lindsay Ferguson (Ottawa singer)

I had to help out a friend by taking photos of her set, which he needed for the Wakefield newspaper.

I was completely blown away by the performances from The Dodos, Okkervil River, and DeVotchKa. Each band brought something unique to the night, making it another memorable evening at RBC Bluesfest.

Overall, it was another fun night of music at the festival.

I’m still debating whether I should give away my signed DeVotchKa ticket stub…
