They were the only Saskatchewan artist nominated in any category. Library Voices released the “For John” EP via their own self-run label Prairie Shag in June 2014. Their latest singled “Windsor Hum” spent nearly two months on the CBC R3 charts, including three weeks at the number 1 (www.facebook.com/libraryvoices).
