This will be the legendary Canadian rock band's first televised performance since the death of lead singer Gord Downie in 2017. "We're really happy to be performing on the 50th annual Juno Awards," the band says in a press release issued by CARAS today. "It's been such a difficult year for our fellow musicians, we wanted to do something to honour them in a way that would make Gord proud and smile. Having a little live music back will be a really good start."
