Elvis Costello, Roots set for first Whistler fest
Music event set for July 19-20 in British Columbia
Elvis Costello and the Imposters, the Roots and Broken Social Scene have been tapped for this year's inaugural Whistler Music Festival, set for July 19-20 at Tube Park at Base II on the side of Blackcomb Mountain in Whistler, British Columbia.
Other artists performing at the festival include Robert Randolph & the Family Band, Medeski Martin & Wood, Bedouin Soundclash and Serena Ryder. Additional acts will be announced in the coming weeks. Tickets for the event go on sale Thursday via WhistlerMusicFestival.com. Single-day tickets are priced at about $67.50, and two-day passes cost $120.
"We'll be in an unbelievable setting in the middle of the mountains," Festival Network CEO Tom Shepard said.
The Whistler Music Festival is produced by Festival Network in collaboration with Tourism Whistler, Whistler-Blackcomb and Resort Municipality of Whistler. Festival Network also overseas such jazz/folk-themed festivals as JVC Jazz Festival Miami, Los Angeles' Playboy Jazz Festival and JVC Jazz Festival New York.
The event brings another major concert to the Whistler area; the inaugural Pemberton Festival will be held just north of the town the weekend after Whistler and will feature performances by Coldplay, Jay-Z and Nine Inch Nails, among others.

Rowland shelves Hollywood dreams
Melbourne (ANI): Grammy award-winning singer Kelly Rowland has temporarily shelved her Hollywood dreams to concentrate solely on her stellar music career, after she lost on a supporting role in the hugely hyped 'Sex and the City movie' to Oscar-winner Jennifer Hudson. In a recent interview, the former Destiny's Child revealed that she has always harbored aspirations to make it as a bootylicious big-screen queen. Rowland also said that it would have been "my absolute dream" to have worked alongside the Big Apple's fabulous four. "I didn't get the role, it wasn't for me and I had to deal with that," The Daily Telegraph quoted her, as saying. "It would have been a dream - it's any girl's dream - but I feel like whatever is going to happen is going to happen," she added.
