In her career to-date she has received eight JUNO Awards including Female Artist of the Year and Songwriter of the Year, and is a nominee this year for Adult Contemporary Album of the Year for A Jann Arden Christmas.

Now, he’s known to millions of Canadians as the host of the most-watched television program in the country, THE AMAZING RACE CANADA.

“I hosted the JUNO Awards almost 20 years ago and I am completely thrilled, shocked, elated and excited to be doing it again with Jon!” said Jann Arden. “It’s an honour to be a part of this year’s celebration of the best of Canadian music in my home town.”

“Being asked to assist Jann Arden with hosting the JUNOS is a bit sad actually…because when it’s over, then what?” said Jon Montgomery. “I might as well pack it in, because nothing could ever be cooler than this opportunity.”

“Jann and Jon are going to knockout JUNO viewers and the crowd in Calgary with their charisma, comedy, and great sense of fun,” said John Brunton, Executive Producer, THE 2016 JUNO AWARDS. “This year’s show is shaping up to be a memorable night in Canadian music!”
