Headlining Saturday night, the unbeatable, indefatigable, unforgettable Wormwood Scrubs - from the first Strummerfest to today, one of our most faithful and supportive performers, and deliverers of an awesome rock and rock and rock and roll show!

"A soft tour-de-force, the grand echo from the small sound, a burst of light from the centre of the room," from her page at Epoch Tapes, seems to perfectly describe this award-winning young singer from right here in Waterloo!

A hot indie/soul/ska/punk outfit from hogtown, Copper Crown first joined the Strummerfest family for our Toronto StrummerJam 2016.  We think you'll be glad they've come back to be part of Summerfest 2018!

Powerful old school punk rock out of Montreal. We saw The Nailheads first in Toronto, and we're stoked they've made Strummerfest a stop on their 2018 tour!

70's and 80's punk era classics performed by one of Waterloo-Wellington's most authentic cover bands (if that's a thing, they make it a thing).

Original plucky folky punky rocky rhythms by banjo and guitar are what make Bad Raven Lucy as unique and entertaining as their name.
Due to a work conflict, BRL might not be able to perform at Strummerfest this year, so they are not on the posted schedule. If they are able to attend, theirperformance will be at 1 pm on August 4.
