J.P. Cormier wows Valley Ex crowd

Cape Breton's J.P. Cormier packed the hill at Riverside Stage at the Annapolis Valley Exhibition in Lawrencetown Thursday evening and wowed the hundreds there with guitar, mandolin, fiddle, and banjo. His mix of instrumentals and his own heart-felt lyrics appealed to all ages and in the end had the crowd roaring for more.

Twice Cormier and his bass player teamed up to play the same mandolin at the same time -- and fans went wild.

Friday night at the Valley Ex it's Aaron Pritchett and on Saturday is Gordie Sampson. Shows take place at 8:30 p.m. and are included in the price of admittance at the gate.
