11th Annual CJLO Diego Award Winners

August 4 2015 // Robo DJ // CJLO

Here's to another amazing year of independent radio at CJLO 1690 AM!

The CJLO Diego Awards is an annual awards ceremony created to celebrate a year of hard work and quality programming at CJLO 1690 AM, and to celebrate the spirit of community/college radio, which is THE driving force behind the support of independent music, artists, and grass-roots communities in Montreal and the world at large.

There is a staggering number of committed volunteers, quality radio programs, session and production engineers, and news and music journalists at CJLO 1690 AM. We recognise that even though there can only be one recipient per Diego category, all of those who give their time and effort to make CJLO the best radio station it can be are winners in our hearts. Yes, that means YOU.

It is our honour to post the winners of the 11th Annual CJLO Diego Awards. Special thanks to all our nominees!
