MusicNL’s awards brunch this morning was a first-rate affair that saw varied performances from 4 local artists — Jerry Stamp, Waterfront Fire, Oroboros, and Kat McLevey — in between some witty emceeing from Kim Stockwood & Damhnait Doyle, and the presentation of this year’s awards.
And it was a fortunate year for the Fortunate Ones, who took home a whopping 4 awards, including Album of the Year. Kat McLevey and The Once each came out of the weekend with two trophies.
