The 2017 Canadian Folk Music Awards (CFMA) have been announced for November 18 and 19 at the Bronson Centre in Ottawa.
Created by the internationally-recognized members of Canada’s folk music community, the 2017 CFMA will nominate albums released between June 15, 2016, to June 14, 2017, in 19 categories. The 2017 nominees will be announced during a live webstream at https://www.youtube.com/user/prixfolkawards on September 21.
Tickets can be purchased online at http://folkawards.ca/tickets/ and are $35 (plus fees) for individual nights and $60 (plus fees) for a wristband for both galas.

Born and raised with thoughts and aspirations of becoming a famous bassist in Sarnia, ON; Emily Plunkett now lives in Gatineau, QC, and considers National Capital Region home sweet home. A product of the Beatles, MuchMusic and the Southwestern Ontario summer festival circuit (circa 2000), her interest and love in concert photography came almost completely by accident when her journalism program at Algonquin College required courses in photojournalism (and she quickly realized that photos taken at concerts using a DSLR are enormously better than ones she was taking on a point-and-shoot she bought for a trip to England). She is extremely proud of the fact she has seen Sloan in some form or another 25 times.
