On Friday, March 15, the Stingray team arrived at Toronto’s Union Central Station excited to be part of the JUNO Express, in collaboration with the JUNOS and Via Rail. As we headed to the JUNO Awards in London, Ontario, we hosted artists and fans for a private show in the Stingray Car!

On March 15th, the Stingray squad headed to London, Ontario, for the JUNO Awards, a weekend of music celebrations. It is always with great pleasure and excitement that Stingray partners with the JUNOS to honour Canada’s music, and the people who make it shine all around the world.

We asked 10 questions to Canadian guitarist, composer, and producer:  Jesse Cook!

Chaque vendredi, les employés de notre Quartier général à Montréal se rejoignent au Café Stingray autour d’un verre pour célébrer les bons coups de la semaine et fraterniser entre collègues.

"From viral sensations to promising up-and-comers, 2019 is producing an incredible crop of new artists that remind us why we listen to music at all. Here are some of our favorites so far. 

With her painfully public feuds, love for explicit language, and controversial past, Afro-Latina rapper Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, better known as Cardi B, may not be considered as an ideal role model for young women by the general public. Nevertheless, the 26-year old New Yorker just made history; at the 61st annual Grammy Awards earlier this year, Cardi B won the category “Best Rap Album” for her 2018 release “Invasion of Privacy,” making her the first female solo artist to ever achieve this. Role model or not, Cardi B’s win marks an important milestone in the history and continuous rise of female rap.

The dust has settled following the 91st Academy Awards, and as always, the ceremony has provoked heated debate amongst critics and movie fans alike. In this first installment of ‘You Know the Score,’ I look at the nominees for Best Original Score and discuss whether the Academy made the right choice in awarding the Oscar to Ludwig Göransson for Black Panther.

As part of its longstanding partnership with the Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (CARAS), Stingray is proud to be at the JUNOS again this year. We’ll be attending and covering various events, presenting one of our prestigious Stingray Rising Stars awards, and promoting various JUNOS-themed music channels.
