It's been a long struggle, but things with the #CCMA are wrapping up nicely.
We do need some help picking Album of the Year and Track of the Year nominees and winners after the genres are done (that's May 30). The problem is there are a ton of blocSonic nominees. We don't have all the winners yet, but it's possible some hip hop winners will come out of there too. We're trying to keep this as unbiased as possible
As far as genre awards, the only thing we are really still trying to figure out is #folk track nominees. Please, please, please send your suggestions. Please do NOT send album suggestions. It'll just be noise. Folk means whatever you want it to me, but given the other folk judge, doubt folktronica is going to end up being a winner. If you feel strongly that it's amazing though, I'll give it a shot.
As of the moment, this is my winner for the folk track: https://rallyroot.bandcamp.com/track/yes-i-do -- it's super poppy, so if you'd hate to see a folk award go to something so poppy, you better send me your suggestions.
Seems likely David Rovics is going to win album of the year of the folk category.
