The Ninth Annual Best Of Saint John Music Poll Announce Nominees

The people have spoken, and through the powerful processes of modern democracy they have selected the most popular musical talents, supporters, and Adam Kiersteads for Local 107.3fm’s Ninth Annual Best Of Saint John Music Poll.

Having overcome the challenge of remembering things that happened all of six months ago, the audiophiles of Saint John have whittled down the list to just a handful of potential winners in thirteen different categories. We now know who our 2016 nominees are.

“Saint John continues to impress and the appreciation for its artists spreads far and wide. Join us for one of the most fun events of the year celebrating everything that happened musically in 2016,” says Local 107.3fm Station Manager Brian Cleveland.
