MsKemi and Johnny Reid at the 2010 Juno awards |
Toronto-based crooner Johnny Reid will try to fire up the crowd at this year's Canadian Country Music Awards.
The 37-year-old Scottish-born country star is among the latest additions to the lineup for this year's show, taking place Sept. 9 at Saskatoon's Credit Union Centre.
Reid won three awards at last year's bash, including male artist of the year and the fans' choice award.
Paul Brandt, Eric Church and George Canyon were also announced as performers on Tuesday.
They'll join previously announced performers Dean Brody, Deric Ruttan, Miranda Lambert and Pistol Annies.
Tickets for the gala range from $45 to $90.

I spent a lot of time with John at many events here in Canada, most recently we had lunch in the VIP Green room at the 2012 Canadian Radio Music Awards. Very humble and talented. I just love his Scottish accent. Johnny's my baby!--MsKemi
