Growing from community hall dances to a fully fledge music festival, The Basin Brothers' North Along the Shore Jamboree in Newport Landing, Nova Scotia featured some of our favourite songwriters and performers.


North Along The Shore Jamboree is a country, Americana, and folk music festival in Hants County, NS. Located just 40 minutes from Halifax, North Along The Shore Jamboree showcases high tides, beautiful ocean views, and real live country, americana, folk, and roots music.

Curated by local band The Basin Brothers, the Jamboree is chock-full of musical talent.
