The nominations for the Canadian Juno Awards were recently revealed and this marks the second straight year that I have included this particular rundown in our context of such reports here on “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken”. While we might be a US based entertainment medium, we’ve long appreciated a number of Canadian artists and gladly help their awards celebrate the best of the best as viewed by their committee. Let’s take a look shall we? Don’t worry, I’ll be returning down at the close with some final opinion.
Artist of the Year:
Shawn Mendes
Bryan Adams
