Juno Awards 2012: Feist and Deadmau5 Announced as Performers

The Juno Awards have never exactly been known as a bastion of hipness. No, Canada's Grammys have been far more likely to hire Shania Twain as a hockey jersey-wearing host or give all the major gold to Nickelback or Michael Buble.

But that changed this year when Arcade Fire dominated a Drake-hosted Junos that also featured televised performances by Chromeo, Tokyo Police Club and Broken Social Scene.

Apparently, the academy is planning to keep that streak alive for the 2012 Juno Awards on April 1 in Ottawa, ON, as they've just announced Feist and Deadmau5 as performers at the award show, alongside singer-songwriter City and Colour and Canadian roots-rock icons Blue Rodeo.
