GET MAJOR RESULTS FOR INDIE RELEASES
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.
Johnny Dowd Featured on The Love and Rockets Tribute CD
7th Annual IMA Alt. Country Album Winner Johnny Dowd has a track on the Love and Rockets tribute album,
New Tales to Tell. The album was released digitally on July 28th and will be available on CD August 11th. Dowd collaborated with friend Billy Coté (Madder Rose) for his cover of “Bound for Hell.” Other artists on the album include David Johansen, Frank Black, The Dandy Warhols, Adrian of No Doubt and Chantal of Morningwood.
Dowd is currently working on a new album, set to be released next spring. He says it is "
going to take us back to the days when Soul music and garage Rock collided. Lots of fuzz bass, farfisa, and and 'my baby left me' lyrics.'In short, another new direction. It's going to be (I swear) my best, most fun, record yet."
There's also a May 2010 European tour in the works, so stay tuned!
