Ottawa's troubled Capital Hoedown festival has seemingly lost its last country superstar.
Taylor Swift no longer lists her Aug. 11 Ottawa date on her website, despite it being billed as her only scheduled North American date in 2012 on the festival's site.
Swift's apparent pull-out comes after stars Brad Paisley, Reba McEntire, Sheryl Crow and Ronnie Dunn either removed or declined to list Capital Hoedown on their website.
A news release from organizers Tuesday said Capital Hoedown will be changing its lineup and location and giving refunds after failing to pay the city for use of Kanata's Walter Baker Park.
Denis Benoit of Concert International Inc. said the new venue, to be announced later this week, will be close to the original one.
He said fans will be "pleased" with the additions to the lineup and anyone wanting a refund can get one by Tuesday, June 19.
