Greetings from Italy,

I am extremely honoured and proud to announce that the Julian Taylor's Jukebox radio show has received the 2024 CRABO Award (NCRA - National Campus and Community Radio Association) for Best Syndicated Show.

I remember sitting in my backyard with some good friends and starting an online petition back in 2016 to try and get more diversity heard on the radio here in Canada.

I’ve always been someone who sticks to a vision if I think it’s an important one that may not only benefit myself but others and this award is one of those full circle moments for me.

Having more diversity on the airwaves is starting to happen more and more and I am fortunate to be a part of that movement not only through my music but by also supporting the music of so many incredible artists that I believe in and who are making a difference in the world.

None of this would have been possible without the support of my kickass team, our amazing listeners, and our wonderful station partners that carry the show. Thank you!

I also want to thank our sponsors past and present, Slaight Music, Long & McQuade Musical Instruments, Tonica Kombucha, Aventine Investments & Paul Hahn & Co. - Toronto's Piano Store Since 1913

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
