his recent release "A Natural Fact". The award was handed out this past
Saturday at a gala dinner at the Queensbury Convention Centre in
Regina.
"Winning this Juno is amazing. I am so proud to be included in such great
company with the other nominees. I share this with all the people that made A
NATURAL FACT so special, especially my producer Rob Szabo. This was a team
effort. I also want to thank Mel Brown, who continues to inspire me." Strongman said.
Other deserving nominees in the category were Shakura
S'Aida, Colin James, Jack de Keyzer and Steve Hill. For a full list of 2013 JUNO
