BRATISLAVA 16. februára (SITA) - Rocková skupina Nickelback, prvá kanadská rocková formácia po 30 rokoch, ktorej sa podarilo bodovať na prvej priečke americkej hitparády Billboard, získala vedúcich šesť nominácií na prestížne kanadské hudobné ceny JUNO. Rockeri z Alberty tak získali nominácie v kategóriách ako najlepší album roka či najlepší singel roka. Džezová speváčka Diana Krall a spevák Michael Bublé získali po päť nominácií, obaja aj v kategóriách ako umelec roka, album roka a najlepší umelec podľa fanúšikov JUNO fan choice award. Počas svojej kariéry Krall získala už celkovo 16 nominácií na cenu JUNO, z ktorých zúročila šesť. Medzi ďalšími viacnásobne nominovanými je i spevák a hudobný skladateľ Neil Young, ktorý sa uchádza o tri ceny. Nickelback je po kapele Bachman-Turner Overdrive z roku 1974 prvou, ktorej sa podarilo úspešne debutovať v americkom rebríčku. Nominácie na ceny JUNO sú kombináciou predajnosti a hlasov viac ako 2000 členov Kanadskej hudobnej akadémie. Odovzdávanie cien sa uskutoční 2. apríla v Halifaxe v Novom Škótsku. Vystúpiť by tu mala britská skupina Coldplay, ako i skupiny Nickelback, Bedouin Soundclash a Broken Social Scene.
