The night featured performances by nominees Clairmont The Second, Iskw, James Barker Band, Terra Lightfoot and one of the 2018 Allan Slaight Juno Master Class winners, Caveboy.
Host Michael Bubl set the tone early on Sunday night by announcing his wife’s third pregnancy. There was also a moment of celebration for Gord Downie, the late Tragically Hip frontman, who won three awards, including Artist Of The Year.
The remaining awards, including Album Of The Year, were also handed out. Barenaked Ladies were inducted into the Hall of Fame as well.
