A Polaris Music Prize Oral History By AUX TV

· by Aaron Brophy

The folks at AUX rounded up former Polaris Music Prize champions, jurors, hosts, directors and folks we’ll just call “miscellaneous” and asked them to talk about their Polaris experiences.

As it turns out, there’ve been some strange adventures along the way.

Featuring:
Steve Jordan (Polaris Founder/Executive Director)
James Keast (Polaris Chief Returning Officer/Exclaim! Editor-in-chief)
Liisa Ladouceur (Former Polaris Chief Returning Officer/Journalist)
Grant Lawrence (Polaris gala host/CBC Radio 3 personality)
Helen Spitzer (Polaris Grand Juror/Journalist)
Owen Pallett (2006 Prize winner/Final Fantasy)
Damian Abraham (Fucked Up vocalist/MuchMusic host)
Del Cowie (Polaris Grand Juror/Exclaim! Assistant Editor)
