2012 JUNO NOMINATIONS: Congrats to Tangents North Music artists Peter Katz and David Francey!
We are pleased to announce that two TNM artists have received 2012 Juno Award nominations. For David Francey, a well-known icon in the Canadian folk/roots scene, the two nominations (Roots & Traditional Album of the Year, Solo, for Late Edition, and Music DVD of the Year for Burning Bright) are his fifth and sixth Juno nominations. Francey has a fierce competitor in the Music DVD of the Year category, though - TNM's own Peter Katz has received his first ever Juno nomination for his beautifully produced Peter Katz and Friends: Live At The Music Gallery.
"It was a massive shock, not something I thought I would ever see happen in my lifetime," writes Katz in a recent post on his website, reflecting on hearing the news of the nomination. "It was a good day."
Whatever the outcome, we're proud of our artists- congratulations, David and Peter! We're rooting for you!

She has been earning rave reviews and topping major music writers top ten album of the year lists as a songwriter since her official debut album Across the Atlantic (2009), all the while producing and engineering her own music.

I recorded this show back in May of 2010 not really knowing what I was going to do with it, but as I started listening back to it, I realized that for many of the songs, these live versions were THE versions I had always wanted people to hear. They feel like the 'real' incarnation of many of the songs, funny how things work...
