Crescendo Fest HFX Crescendo Fest is an event designed to turn up the volume on Black music artists. Our music has always given us a sense of belonging.

For years, African Nova Scotian/Black artists have been outnumbered and overlooked at festivals within Atlantic Canada. We must now take charge and carve out our own space, focussing the spotlight on our talented music community. Home to the largest Black community in the country, Nova Scotia is, in many ways, the birthplace of Black heritage in Canada, making it the ideal site for Crescendo Fest;

a hub that will create space for other Black Music artists to engage from across Atlantic Canada. The role of Black Music has always been crucial to the confidence and identity of African Nova Scotian/Black artists. We have existed in the dichotomy between the Black Nova Scotian reality and living in a predominantly white and immigrant community. It has helped many of us grow – giving us confidence, creativity, and freedom. It breaks down societal norms and stereotypes. It gives us the boldness to go against the grain. Our music is something we can be proud of, something we celebrate. It speaks to the complexity of our people, our story, our legacy. It speaks to the impact we continue to have in the world around us. Black music shapes the lives of many people all over the world, and it's been that way for centuries. The roots and impact of Black music go much deeper than the catchy songs and popular artists that dominate the world’s music charts. Music is a powerful therapy and nowhere is that more true than for the Black community. Expressing ourselves musically is our escape from the pain of prejudice. It is time to share that music and experience with Atlantic Canadian audiences and to bring it to the attention of the world! Visit our website for more info!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

Crescendo Fest 2023 was incredible! I’m overwhelmed by the love and support we received throughout the past few months.

Grateful for everyone who had a hand in making it possible, for all of you who attended the events, and for all of you who said a prayer during the early morning thunderstorm on Saturday!

The work has been started, but there’s so much more to do!

Keep an eye out for what’s next!
