Presented by SOCAN – the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada – the SOCAN Awards Gala recognizes the accomplishments of Canadian songwriters in Pop/Rock, Dance, Urban, Country, Jazz, Folk/Roots, Classical, Film & Television, and International categories. SOCAN members such as Dean Brody, Alyssa Reid, Alex Cuba, Hedley's Jacob Hoggard, Fefe Dobson, David Myles, Mychael Danna and Bob Ezrin, were in attendance to receive their awards. Performers at the show included electro-pop group Dragonette; pop tunesmith Hawksley Workman, who led a tribute with Royal Wood and Serena Ryder to honour Bruce Cockburn; indie-rock trio Young Rival; and urban star Danny Fernandes.
The evening was filled with celebration and accolades. SOCAN members receiving songwriting honours included: Three Days Grace for "Lost in You," Michael Bublé and Robert Grant Scott for "Hollywood," and K'NAAN for "The Lazy Song" in the pop/rock category; JRDN for "Like Magic" in the urban music category; and Johnny Reid for "Let's Go Higher" in the country music category. Bublé and Scott earned a second win with the International Song Award for "Hollywood." Ra McGuire and Brian Smith of Trooper received three SOCAN Classic Awards for "Janine," "General Hand Grenade" and "Raise A Little Hell," all of which have earned more than 100,000 radio airplays.
Recipients of SOCAN's major achievement awards this year were Bruce Cockburn, who received the Lifetime Achievement Award; Trooper, who earned the National Achievement Award; and Joel Zimmerman aka deadmau5, who received the International Achievement Award in recognition of his outstanding worldwide success in 2011.
SOCAN will also recognize outstanding Francophone music creators and publishers at an awards gala on Wednesday, November 21st, at the Hyatt Regency in Montreal. A wide-ranging variety of SOCAN members will join host Michel Faubert in celebration of this year's Francophone SOCAN award recipients.
