Bruce Cockburn - Bone On Bone cover

7 February 2018 - Hi, I'm happy to announce that Bruce's album "Bone On Bone" has been nominated for a JUNO award in the "Contemporary Roots Album of the Year" category. It's Bruce's 33rd nomination. He's won 12 to date. Here's a stat to contemplate and is fun to think about. Bruce got his first JUNO nomination in 1971 (he also won that year). So getting a nomination in 2018 means he's been getting nominated over a period of 47 years now. Wow.

To put that in some perspective, for an artist who is getting their first nomination now in 2018, to do what Bruce has done, it would mean that they would have to get nominated again in 2065. Think about that. I hope I'm around to see it happen. ~ Bernie Finkelstein

Update: March 25, 2018 - Bruce won 13th Juno last night for Bone On Bone. It won for Top Contemporary Folk Album of the Year.
