The long list of the 2008 Polaris Music Prize has been made public for the first time.
The Polaris jury–made up of 185 music journalists, broadcasters and bloggers across Canada–was asked to list their top five favourite Canadian records released between June 1, 2007 and May 31, 2008. The top 40 artists made the first cut–or the “long list.”
The second round of voting will narrow the 40 artists vying for the $20,000 prize to just 10. That “short list” will be announced on July 7 at the Drake Hotel in Toronto. An 11-member jury will decide the ultimate winner at a Toronto awards ceremony in September.
The annual Polaris Music Prize is given to the Canadian artist who released the best full-length album within the last year. The award is based on artistic merit, not record sales.
