Brad Johner 
One of Saskatchewan's most awarded and respected artists on the national stage, Johner has enjoyed over two decades of success as both a group and solo artist.  Audiences first met Johner in 1988, when a partnership with his brother Ken began a 14-year-long musical success story as The Johner Brothers. Garnering numerous CCMA, WCMA, and SCMA wins, three Juno nominations, and being crowned SCMA "Entertainers of the Decade" was a testament to Brad Johner's writing prowess that contributed to a remarkable 17 singles from four hit albums. In 2003, Brad launched out as a solo artist with his critically acclaimed and Juno nominated "Free" album. The debut established Brad as one of Canada's leading male country stars, and awards and accolades followed, including a 2003 Western Canadian Music Award for "Outstanding Country Album," a win at the 2004 Canadian Independent Music Awards for "Favourite Country Artist," and after his sophomore solo release "Summertown Road", a Male Artist of the Year Award win at the 2007 Canadian Country Music Awards.
