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.
