Jube in January makes its return
NEW GLASGOW, N.S. — The Riverfront Jubilee is bringing back Jube in January

This year will be the 25th anniversary of the Riverfront Jubilee. In celebration, there will be events throughout the year leading up to the August long weekend, and it all begins with Jube in January.
“Jube in January is an event that has been on hiatus the past few years,” said chairperson Janine Linthorne. “We thought this was the perfect year to bring it back, while celebrating 25 years of the Riverfront Jubilee.”
The jubilee began as a small local music festival and over the past 25 years has grown into an East Coast Music Award nominee, Tourism Nova Scotia Signature Event, Nova Scotia Music Award-winning, threeday music festival.
Neon Soul Machine (NSM) is a 10-piece party band based in New Glasgow. Their setlist is inspired by everything soulful and groovy, from Motown hits of decades past to funk-inspired renditions of modern-day bangers. NSM have only been rocking out together since 2018, but this band features some of the most in-demand performers in the Pictou County area. Members have performed as freelancers in countless musical genres, others with noted local groups such as Pictou County Pop Classics, Momentary Lapse: A Pink Floyd Show, Hot Mess, Grooveback and The Collective, to name a few.
The Collective is a six-piece band from New Glasgow, currently making waves in the local music scene with their unique, genre-defying blend of indie-pop dance grooves that consistently leave their audiences wanting more. Having just released their debut single, “Beast,” to an overwhelmingly positive response, The Collective is poised to launch into what is certain to be a bright trajectory in the music industry.
Trilogy consists of three Pictou County musicians who have combined their unique styles into one harmonious sound. Whether you’re a country fan, a pop lover or anything in between, they’ve got it covered.
Musician Randy Swallow returned from British Columbia and rejoined Dave MacDonald and James Swallow to form the Randy Swallow band.
