The Polaris Music Prize short list is set to be announced tomorrow at the Carlu in Toronto starting at 11:00 a.m. ET. That leaves us one more day to speculate on which 10 albums from the current long list of 40 should make the cut.
The Polaris Music Prize is an annual, juried award given to a Canadian album of the highest artistic integrity without regard to sales figures, genre or professional affiliation. It is determined by a group of journalists, broadcasters, bloggers and programmers from across Canada. This year the winning album will receive $50,000.
Previous winners have included Owen Pallet, Feist, Patrick Watson and Tanya Tagaq.
We have revealed our picks for the short list in the gallery above. Check back with us on Thursday as we will publish the list as soon as it's available.
Which 10 albums do you think will make the short list? Let us know in the comments below or tweet us @cbcradio3.
