“It’s an honour to present the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Medal to one of Canada’s most celebrated country artists – ever…” 

— Minister of Arts and Culture — Government of Alberta

With 22x Canadian Country Music Awards, 3x JUNO Awards, 1x Honour from Canada’s Walk of Fame, 4x Platinum and 10x gold singles, 2x Gold-certified albums, 4 x #1 songs, and 17x top-10 radio hits to his credit, Brett Kissel has had an unparalleled rise to superstardom in the country music scene since his first single release only a decade ago.  Sure, he may have what the Toronto Star called a ‘tractor bucket full of awards’, but this authentic farm and ranch raised star of the stage has some ‘serious country cred’ (People Magazine).
