Centrally located Moncton has a thriving new music scene offering everything from traditional Acadian and Celtic music to talented buskers outside the downtown shops to occasional large outdoor rock and roll concerts by big name artists such as the Rolling Stones.
Saint John is home to one of the longest-running music news websites in the province, Giraffecycle.com, which provides information about the local art scene and promotes discussion of events and musical acts in Saint John and Fredericton.
The city of Miramichi is best known for its country and bluegrass music, featuring a blend of Acadian, Irish and Scot's traditional style of music.
