Nielsen has re-signed with CARAS as the exclusive data provider for the Juno Awards. Nielsen's stats and facts will help the Academy throughout the nominations and awards selection process.
 
“We’re honoured to again work with CARAS in support of the biggest night in Canadian music,” Nielsen Music Canada VP Paul Shaver said in a statement earlier today. “Providing trusted insights to industry leaders is at the core of Nielsen Music, and we once again look forward to celebrating artist achievements at the 2018 Juno Awards in Vancouver.”

“The Juno Awards are delighted to team up again with Nielsen Music for 2018,” said Academy President Allan Reid. “Their trusted data continues to be an essential component in our selection of nominees and award recipients.”

The 47th annual week-long shindig will be hosted in Vancouver March 19 through 25, culminating in Awards Broadcast, hosted by Michael Bublé on CBC on Sunday, March 25.

Stephane Lecuyer Appointed Chief Operating Officer of The MRG Group and Managing Director of MRG Live

One of Canada's biggest independent music promoters has added to its leadership as it continues to expand.

Stephane Lecuyer is stepping into a new role as chief operating officer (COO) of The MRG Group and managing director of MRG Live.

One of Canada's biggest independent live music companies, the MRG Group and MRG Live have taken over operations for multiple Canadian events and venues in recent months. Back in August, the former acquired for Kelowna, B.C. Venue, Revelry, and the latter obtained a free, two-day Burlington, Ontario waterfront music festival, formerly known as Sound of Music Festival, in October. As both organizations’ portfolios continue to grow, Lecuyer is coming on in a dual leadership role.
