The complete performers list on The 2018 Juno Awards broadcast has been announced.


The new names added this week are BC-based artists Diana Krall, Shawn Hook, and DJ Felix Cartal (a double nominee this year), plus Nunavut indie roots band The Jerry Cans.

To nobody's surprise, it has also been confirmed that former Barenaked Ladies singer and co-founder Steven Page will rejoin his comrades for a one-time only reunion, to celebrate their induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. BNL keyboardist Kevin Hearn will also team up with Sarah Harmer and Dallas Green (City and Colour) in this year’s tribute to Gord Downie.

Kesha Brings 'Holiday Road' to The Billboard Canadian Hot 100

The newly independent pop singer's cover of Lindsay Buckingham's 1983 song from National Lampoon's Vacation was first released as a Spotify exclusive for the holidays. Michael Bublé's Christmas, meanwhile, remains at No. 1 on the Canadian Albums chart.

Kesha has brought an under-appreciated holiday gem back to the charts. Her version of "Holiday Road" debuts on this week's Billboard Canadian Hot 100 (dated Dec. 28, 2024) at No. 83.

"Holiday Road" was originally released in 1983 by Fleetwood Mac legend Lindsey Buckingham and serves as the propulsive opening theme to the Chevy Chase-starting classic comedy road trip film National Lampoon's Vacation.
