Shanneyganock set to receive Dr. Helen Creighton Lifetime Achievement Award at ECMA 2020
The ECMA Board of Directors is pleased to announce they will honour Shanneyganock as the recipient of this year's Dr. Helen Creighton Lifetime Achievement Award.
An East Coast phenomenon, the band has traveled around the world promoting and preserving the music and songs of Newfoundland and Labrador. Over the course of 13 albums and countless live shows, they have carried a songbook that reflects on the rich cultural history of the province. Their music inspired the Tony-nominated score of Come From Away, and in 2017 the band was invited to perform at the Broadway premiere of the critically acclaimed play.
The Dr. Helen Creighton Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes individuals who have had a profound and lasting effect on the Atlantic Canadian Music Industry. It will be given to Shanneyganock as part of ECMA Music & Industry Awards celebration in St. John’s, NL on Thursday, April 29. A full list of the 2020 ECMA Honourary Award winners will be announced in the coming weeks.

Le conseil d'administration de l'ECMA a le plaisir d'annoncer que Shanneyganock sera récipiendaire du Prix Dr. Helen Creighton pour l’ensemble des réalisations cette année.
Phénomène de la côte Est, le groupe a parcouru le monde entier pour promouvoir et préserver la musique et les chansons de Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador. Au cours de 13 albums et d'innombrables spectacles, ils ont réalisé un recueil de chansons qui reflète la riche histoire culturelle de la province. Leur oeuvres ont inspiré la musique pour la production Come From Away, et en 2017 le groupe a été invité à jouer à la première de la pièce de Broadway acclamée par la critique et nominée pour des prix Tony.
Le Prix Dr. Helen Creighton pour l’ensemble des réalisations reconnaît la contribution d'un individu qui a eu un impact significatif à long terme sur l'industrie de la musique du Canada atlantique. Il sera remis à Shanneyganock dans le cadre de la célébration des ECMA Music & Industry Awards à Saint-Jean, T.-N.-L. le jeudi 29 avril. Une liste complète des lauréats des prix honorifiques pour 2020 sera dévoilé dans les prochaines semaines.
