Karo Laurendeau walked away with four honours at the Gala Country Awards, at André Mathieu Hall on Oct. 19, 2019, making her the top winner of the evening. She was awarded in the categories Best Album of Original Material, Song of the Year for “La fureur de vivre,” as well as Female Artist and Radio Show of the Year, the latter for Destination New Country. SOCAN asked her to tell us what those awards mean to her, and where she thinks Québec’s country scene is at in 2019.
