2020 Country Music Association of Ontario Awards Winners!
The Country Music Association of Ontario gave away their annual awards on Sunday night in London with the first ever drive-in awards show.
Hosted by Jason McCoy and with performances from Tim Hicks, The Reklaws, Kelsi Mayne, The Abrams, Les Rats D’Swompe, Nicole Rayy and more, the CMAO Awards show honoured winners across 17 categories. The night’s biggest winner was Meghan Patrick who won for Female Artist of the Year, Songwriter(s) of the Year, and Album of the Year for Wild As Me. She wasn’t alone as a multi-award winner though as James Barker Band, Tim Hicks, and The Reklaws all took home two awards each.
This may not have been the show that was planned at the beginning of the year, but the artists, crew, and Country Music Association of Ontario should all be commended for pulling it off and celebrating country music in Ontario.
