“The overwhelming response to the Wakemakers Tour highlights the depth of musical talent in Atlantic Canada,” said Allegra Swanson, Chair of the 2024 Halifax JUNO Host Committee. “We hope to identify the next generation of JUNO Award winners while also giving some of our region’s most talented emerging artists the opportunity to shine.”

The Wakemakers Tour will continue across the region with stops in Charlottetown (Oct 26), Fredericton (Nov 16), Sydney (Nov 22), and St. John’s (Nov 30) with the lineup of performances to be announced shortly. At each stop, one artist will be selected as the Wavemakers ambassador to win a trip to the JUNO Awards, an opportunity to perform during JUNOfest, and more. Winners will be determined through a live vote by fans and an industry jury panel at the end of each show.
