The Independent Music Awards is an influential & effective international
program that helps top-ranked indie artists & releases overcome mainstream obstacles and reach millions of Fans, Programmers,
Talent Buyers, Film, TV & Gaming Music Supervisors, Press and
other industry movers & shakers.
The IMAs broadens the definition
of what is commercial by giving vetted independent talent access
to major market promotional outlets and music fans.
ARTISTRY HAS ITS AWARDS
The Independent Music Awards is not a contest or battle of the
bands. IMA artists receive yearlong print, online & broadcast
promotions plus distribution & performance opportunities including
an IMA showcase at the CMJ Music Marathon.
The IMAs represent
the diversity of today’s vibrant indie scene and supports artists
with previous major label releases as well as artists that have only
self-released or appeared on indie labels.
There are over 50 Music and Design categories including
Genre Song & Album, Social Action Song, Cover Song,
Music Video,
Live Concert Photo, Merch, Band & Indie Label Web Site,
Press Photo, & Gig Poster.

BEHIND THE MUSIC:
---"...a frantic combination of old-timey string band and vintage honky tonk music with a lot of joyful style and high energy... Their playing was like an old Buick sliding around a sharp mountain on two wheels. These guys must be seen to be believed." ---freighttrainboogie.com
---The Wilders have performed at festivals and concerts, on radio, television, and independent film soundtracks.
--- In 2006, The Wilders were selected to perform at the Famous Spiegeltent at Edinburgh Festival Fringe; the show sold out and the band was honored for its performance with a coveted Herald Angel Award.
