Jessie Farrell nominated for a Juno

 


The headline pretty much says it all. If I can add anything it's that she has been nominated in the "Best New Artist" category. This is pretty cool, because country music traditionally doesn't have a particularly strong presence at the Junos. Jessie won a bunch of awards at the CCMAs and the BCCMAs which is terrific, but the Juno nomination is a pleasant surprise.

The Junos are being held in Vancouver this spring, so I'm looking forward to being able to sleep in my own bed after attending a schmoozy party or two. I'm being presumptuous now, but I like the idea so I'll just go with it right up until I get turned away at the door. Also, I'm not yet sure what the plans are for Jessie performing at the awards show or at another venue in the city as part of JunoFest, but I'll be sure to post it here when I find out.

In the meantime, congratulations to Jessie, and to the rest of the band for all of their hard work in the past year. Crossing fingers...now.
