Toronto Unplugged

Feist on an award show tour | Indie Music Awards, Grammy and Juno Shows

by Mike on February 6th, 2008

Missed Feist on tour this past year…you’ll be able to catch her on a few award shows in the next few months.

The singer is the leading nominee at Canada’s Independent Music Awards, receiving four bids. She joins such other Canadian favorites as Arcade Fire, The Weakerthans, and Emerson Drive as the frontrunners at this year’s ceremony. Voting begins next Tuesday at www.cmw.net.  Winners will be announced at a ceremony during Canadian Music Week, which will take place in Toronto from March 5th through the 8th. The show will feature performances from Tokyo Police Club, The New Pornographers, Besnard Lakes, Young Galaxy, and The Cliks.

Feist has four nominations for the upcoming GRAMMY Awards, and she’s also slated to perform at the U.S. event. She’s also been announced as a performer for the Canadian Juno Awards. Nominees for that event will be announced next week. - The Edge
