Cormier receives the nominations in the midst of preparing to release a two volume compilation spanning his last ten years as a recording artist. “Looking Back – Volume 1: The Instrumentals” includes J.P.’s picks from his five instrumental albums, and “Volume 2: The Songs” covers J.P.’s picks from his vocal releases. Following a hugely successful web site pre-sell of his two-years-in-the-making guitar tablature book, “Primary Color: The Owner’s Manual”, Cormier is currently offering fans the “Looking Back” projects for a limited-time pre-sell period via his online store.
