On Monday night Patrick Watson did the unexpected and took home the second annual Polaris Music Prize, fending off expected front-runners like Feist and the Arcade Fire.

But perhaps more surprising is that the Polaris web site is linking to a news article out of the UK that incorrectly declares actor Patrick Wilson the winner. You might remember him from last year's Little Children.

That's wrong. You're mixing up Patrick Wilsons. The actor is NOT the one the got the award. He's an American actor not a Canadian Musician.
