The IMAs is now gearing up for its 14th annual ceremony. Submissions have been extended now through November 7th, and you're invited to participate!
The
Independent Music Awards program is an international event that
connects artists to new marketing and revenue opportunities. What makes
it different to other awards is the judging and the rewards.
Submissions
are evaluated by peers with a focus on artistry and originality, not
press clippings and record sales. You can submit your work in more than
80 Album, Song, Design and Music Video categories that cover all genres
and specialty categories. The panel of judges includes a range of
music icons, festival programmers, music press, Film & TV music
supervisors and buyers from big performance venues throughout North
America, Europe and Australia -- so you're getting lots of visibility by
influential people just by submitting. This year's panelists include:
Amanda Palmer, Sharon Jones, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Lila Downs, The Wood
Brothers, Jane Monheit, Melissa Auf der Maur and many others.
Winners and nominees
enjoy additional support in marketing campaigns; radio, print, online
and broadcasting promotions; and new performance and revenue
opportunities. These range from a 12-week radio promotion campaign to
special retailer promotions and international distribution
opportunities. You can find out more about these on the IMA submission
page here: http://www.independentmusicawards.com/affiliate/radioairplay
It's
really a no-brainer. So stop whatever you're doing now and join past
winning and nominated IMA artists which include: Band of Skulls, Vienna
Teng, Ben Kweller, Darrell Scott, Lacuna Coil, Joan As Police Woman,
Flying Lotus, Girl In A Coma, Pokey LaFarge & The South City Three,
Elizabeth Mitchell, Jamie Liddell, Pharis & Jason Romero, and many
more by submitting your work.
Nominees are announced in March, and winners are named in the Spring.
