The road to the East Coast Music Awards begins with one of the nominees for Electronic Release of the Year. I connect with Montreal-based and Newfoundland born classical guitarist, Ben Diamond! I connect with Ben about his new album which came out back in October, Voyage, where the first track, “Something Sawed” is up for Electronic Release of the Year. Plus, I speak to Ben about his upbringing, his inspirations, his studies, and how excited he is for the ECMAs to come back to St. John’s!
