When we last discussed the Juno Awards back in January, it was with a hopeful spirit about a year that seemed loaded with excitement and things to do. Sadly that nomination post only ended up being a hope about an exciting and fun year because while its surely been a few months loaded with excitement, its not been good at all and has fallen to being more nerve-wracking than anything else. The ceremony to announce the winners of this years Juno Awards was pushed back from its original March based on the increasing dilemma that is the Coronavirus Pandemic and sadly not too much has changed in North America with this problem and so many things are cancelled for the year. The announcements came virtually about these winners so let’s take a look down below.

Artist of the Year:
WINNER – Shawn Mendes
Bryan Adams
Alessia Cara
Tory Lanez
Jessie Reyez

Group of the Year:
WINNER – Loud Luxury
88Glam
Elijah Woods x Jamie Fine
The Reklaws

Good Morning America Announces “Summer Concert Series” 2019 Lineup

Leave a comment

Readers of my PiercingMetal website know full well just how much I love the live music scene in our Media Metropolis and I see a number of shows each and every month with the purpose of adding content to that website and to raise awareness about the performer. I also love to keep a comprehensive list of “things to do” like this on a vibrant Events Calendar and with the 2019 “Summer Concert Series” being announced by the fine folks at Good Morning America, I knew I had to copy their press announcement and line out all of the special performances for the followers of “The Chronicles Of Piercing Ken”. Take a look down below and I will see you again at the close.

Hey there my friends, so last night they broadcast the 60th Annual Grammy Awards and since I’ve been enjoying showcasing these kind of spectacles with you – I’ve culled together the full list of winners from numerous sources to make sure I didn’t leave anything out. I don’t usually watch the broadcast since there is so little Rock and Metal represented but I do still share those winners on my PiercingMetal.com website. I told the readers of this blog that I do this to fire up the tempers of the Metal reviews readers since they get so passionate about the subject. You’ll notice that this year I’ve showcased the winners only and not the other nominees. This is much easier to read and finish examining in a few minutes unlike the other list which I think ran me something like fourteen pages of text. Here we go.

Record of the Year: 24K Magic by Bruno Mars

Album of the Year: 24K Magic by Bruno Mars

Song of the Year: ”That’s What I Like” — Christopher Brody Brown, James Fauntleroy, Philip Lawrence, Bruno Mars, Ray Charles McCullough II, Jeremy Reeves, Ray Romulus & Jonathan Yip, songwriters (Bruno Mars)

Best New Artist: Alessia Cara

Best Pop Solo Performance: “Shape Of You” by Ed Sheeran
