Lennie Gallant is riding the wave of success.

Last week he received a Juno nomination for his CD, When We Get There.

“It’s great to have it recognized this way. This collection of songs is my strongest yet as a body of work. We worked hard to make sure the album had a real flow to it,’’ said Gallant, who received the nod for roots and traditional album of the year (solo).
