As was mentioned once or twice in various threads, London, Ontario is hosting the Juno awards, and the week-long festival that goes with them. Last night was the first round of awards, a dinner gala. And, to the delight of the host city, the very first award handed out went to Loud Luxury, a DJ duo who started right here in London. One grew up here, the other came here to go to Western. They were at a meet the fans event at Masonville Mall yesterday afternoon and the former was reminiscing about working there. The award was, of course, dance recording of the year, for a piece called Body.
Beyond that, Shawn Mendes, who seems to be the next big Canadian superstar, from Toronto picked up a 3 awards. He's not here since he is touring in Europe but will appear by satellite hookup in tonight's final gala.
That gala, where the last bunch of awards will be handed out and various artists will perform, is being hosted by one of my all-time faves, singer-songwriter Sarah McLachlan, who is also scheduled to perform.
I will scan YouTube later and post a few nominees and winners.
