Peter Tigchelaar Wins Hamilton Music Award, Nov. 22, 2010
Peter won a 2010 Hamilton Music Award for his album 'Gracious Window". Peter's album qualified for a number of categories including folk/roots. The record ended up wining the Best Religious Recording award on the strength of a number of gospel inspired tracks on the album. The presentations took place at the McIntyre Theatre at Mohawk College. Everyone from the Hamilton music scene was there, for what is really Hamilton's version of the Grammy's. Here is a link to the Music Awards site for all the details and other award winners. There will be a TV broadcast of the show nationwide on CHCH on Saturday December 4th at 7PM
