MusicNL (also spelled Music NL, previously known as the Music Industry Association of Newfoundland and Labrador, abbreviated MIANL[1]) is a trade association for the music industry for the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.[2] Kevin Kelly, a former MusicNL board member, was named Media Person of the Year by the organization several times.[3] The 2006 MusicNL awards were presented in Stephenville.[4] Danny Williams, the province's premier, presented the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2007 MusicNL awards gala.[5] In 2008, the MusicNL awards gala was held in Gander.[6]

In 2011, the MusicNL awards were announced in St. John's between October 24 and 30.[7] East of Empire was nominated for three awards, but didn't win either of them.[8] At the 2012 gala, indie pop quartet Repartee won the awards in all five of the categories for which it was nominated.[9] Tom Power, a CBC Radio host, introduced Repartee at the gala.[10]
