For those coming to Newfoundland this summer checkout the local festivals. Almost every town has its own festival. For example in Lewisporte in early Aug (Aug 7-11?), they have the Mussel Bed Soiree. Lots of good music, fresh steamed mussels available in many spots.
Or Deer Lake in July 18-21, Strawberry Festival with a very popular band (Masterless Men).
My suggestion is when planning your trip google the town to see what festival they have. There are quite a few Newfoundlanders that do nothing but travel from one festival to another all summer.
Look for a tradition called "Screeching In". I won't explain what it is (and I hope nobody else does either) but if you get the chance jump at it. You won't regret it.
