The 2013 Polaris Music Prize Short List was announced today at the Drake Hotel in Toronto, Ontario.<\/p>\n

Here is the 2013 Polaris Music Prize Short List:<\/p>\n

Godspeed You! Black Emperor <\/strong>– ‘Allelujah! Don’t Bend! Ascend!
\nZaki Ibrahim<\/strong> – Every Opposite
\nMetric <\/strong>– Synthetica
\nMETZ<\/strong> – METZ
\nPurity Ring <\/strong>– Shrines
\nColin Stetson<\/strong> – New History Warfare Vol. 3: To See More Light
\nTegan And Sara<\/strong> – Heartthrob
\nA Tribe Called Red<\/strong> – Nation II Nation
\nWhitehorse <\/strong>– The Fate Of The World Depends On This Kiss
\nYoung Galaxy<\/strong> – Ultramarine<\/p>\n

Polaris Founder and Executive Director Steve Jordan was quick to point out how sonically diverse the List is.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0This moody and exciting list is proof that the ‘Canadian sound’ has no stylistic boundaries. In equal measure we welcome the seven rookies and three repeat nominees to this year’s Short List,\u00a0\u00bb said Jordan.<\/p>\n

Metric have become the first act to make the Short List three times (2006, 2009, 2013). Tegan And Sara (2010, 2013) and Colin Stetson (2011, 2013) have now both made the Short List twice. Sixteen other acts have made the Short List twice in Polaris history. A Tribe Called Red, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Zaki Ibrahim, METZ, Purity Ring, Whitehorse and Young Galaxy are making their first appearances on the Short List.<\/p>\n

Two-time past Short List nominees Kathleen Edwards and Shad were also revealed as this year’s Gala hosts. <\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0I’m really thrilled to be part of Canada’s music scene and celebrating the work of our friends and collaborators. Polaris has generously supported me over the years and I’m honoured to have been asked to host. I hope my involvement allows me the chance to become acquainted with the nominees whose music is new to me,\u00a0\u00bb said Edwards. <\/p>\n

Shad added, \u00ab\u00a0We’re gonna Hal Johnson and Joanne McLeod this thing hard.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

The Polaris Gala will be held on September 23 at The Carlu in Toronto. A limited number of public balcony seat tickets for the Gala will go on sale through ticketfly.com<\/a> on Monday, July 22. Tickets will be $50. <\/p>\n
