There's more on these and other events Ottawa Blues, Jazz & Swing Guide Week's calendar Not everything is posted on the calendar as it's musician/venue optional to post, and amend the listings as needed. However there's more info on the calendar including links to the venue web sites such as Rainbow Bistro, Tucson's, The Elmdale and Bass Line Station that have more detailed schedules. It's also a good idea to call a venue to confirm that regular listings still apply as they sometimes just quietly go away. Check the calendar for more on Ottawa live music events.
