There are few things that Canadians can count on each summer. The announcement of the Polaris Music Prize short-list is one of them.
FACTOR is a proud supporter of both Canadian musicians from coast to coast to coast, and the Polaris Music Prize itself. The following short-listed albums are #FACTORfunded:
Grimes – Art Angels (Crystal Math)

Through FACTOR’s numerous programs, the following short-listed artists have also been #FACTORfunded in previous years:

We can’t wait for the big announcement on Sept 19! In the meantime, the folks at Polaris have made a Spotify playlist of all the long-listed albums so you can gorge on some of the best Canadian music along with us.
