Sherbrooke’s annual Fete du Lac des Nations gets started this evening, kicking off six nights of music, fireworks and fun at Sherbrooke’s Jacques-Cartier Park.
Lennoxville’s own Lily Kobelt, who heads up the group Lux & the Cryers, will be the first of the performers at this year’s festival. For Kobelt, who takes the stage at 6 p.m. this evening in the SAQ Bistro, the concert will be a childhood dream come true.
“It’s a bit surreal,” Kobelt said, “I remember being a teenager going (to the Fete du Lac), and that was what I looked forward to all year; I would think, oh my god, these people are so cool; I want to do that.” See full story in the Tuesday, July 17 edition of The Record.
