Canada’s annual celebration of music excellence, the JUNO Awards, are coming home to Toronto’s Air Canada Centre on Sunday, March 27 (tickets available through Ticketmaster).
Leading up to the big show there are several genre-specific music events around town beginning tonight and March 17 with reggae showcases at Lula Lounge (1535 Dundas Street West) featuring former JUNO winners. Tonight’s lineup includes Lazo, Liberty Silver and Lillian Allen, and next Thursday it’s Humble, Korexion, Sonia Collymore (left) and Lazah Current, all backed by the Mountain Edge band. Tickets are $20 at the door with proceeds supporting the music program at Sir Sandford Fleming Elementary School.
Did you know there are nearly half a million francophones in Ontario? And Toronto has a strong French music scene, which will be showcased March 18 in the City Hall Rotunda (7 pm). Melanie E. is a French jazz ensemble featuring the vocal talents of Melanie Hartshorn-Walton (below left), and a highly talented group of musicians offering funky interpretations of traditional French and Quebecois songs. Also performing is Paul Demers (below right), a well-known Franco-Ontarian who co-wrote the community’s unofficial anthem “Notre Place” with François Dubé.
