💫First observed by Ptolemy in 169 BC, the North Star lies nearly in a direct line with the Earth's rotational axis. Also known as Polaris, it stands almost motionless in the sky. Polaris has thus made an excellent fixed point from which to navigate. Countless explorers, merchants and generals have used Polaris to find their way such as Marco Polo, Ibn Battuta, and many more. 💫
💫Approximately 2,000 years later and Polaris is still relevant....but not quite in the same way. Established in 2006, the Polaris Music Prize is an award given annually to the best full-length Canadian album. Join us as we dive down the rabbit hole and discuss the brief history of the prize, as well as this year's winner, 13th Floor by Haviah Mighty. 💫
