PMA Showcase 6.30.08

Sunset Strip Music Festival 06/26 - 06/28/08


In January, the Phoenix Music Awards production staff began building a Voting Academy comprised of local business people and other prominent citizens of Arizona. To date, we have distributed over 400 laminated Voting Member badges at three prior events at the Arizona Broadway Theater and SKYE Music Theater respectively. Each laminated badge that is held by a Voting Member will be honored at all of our remaining Showcase Series events in 2008. At this time, due to overwhelming demand for these events, we have instituted a very small cover charge of $5.00. THE COVER CHARGE WILL ONLY APPLY TO THOSE WITHOUT VOTING MEMBER BADGES! Nominated artists will receive free entrance to all the remaining Showcase Series events in 2008.

The Phoenix Music Awards, as well as the Arizona Music Awards, will conduct talent searches statewide as we begin construction of a new "creative community" here in the beautiful southwestern part of the United States. We welcome all local artists and independent film makers to join us in our quest to make Phoenix the next hub of the world of quality entertainment.

*************2008 PMA NOMINEE - DAUGHTERS OF FISSION*************
"If you've been looking for a band whose music will get your adrenaline pumping in no time flat, this is it, right here, 'Abandonatomy' by Daughters Of Fission. The psychedelic feel of the album, combined with the masterful guitar work of John Banks and the strong vocals by Jason Prichard are a perfect fit." - TONY SISON/All Access Magazine

"'Abandonatomy', the group's second CD, is progcore delivered with snarky titles like "Yes We're Perplexed," and "All Purpose Meanies" . . . a menacing anthem with lightning-fast bass drum and organ fills that hover like a cruising UFO)." - SERENE DOMINIC/Phoenix New Times

"Absolutely incredible! As impressive or more than any i've heard!! The cd flows from song to song, is fluid, interweaving has an overall pattern that is both intelligent and exciting, with each song topping the last with no loss in drive or intensity." - GRUM DANO/CD Baby

" Very Cool Lyrics!" - MARK HUDSON - Producer/Ringo Starr & Aerosmith

"You have some really great songs on 'Roadside Revelations'." - STEVE MCCARTY/Steve Miller Band writer

"Sage Gentle-Wing is not just good- he's Great!" - MEREL BREGANTE/Loggins and Messina

"We love Sage's Music! Not only is it technically excellent, it has that rare quality - sincerity and honesty that makes the listener suspend judgment and get lost in Sage's vision . . . a beautiful one!" - TUCK and PATTI/Windham Hill Recording Artists


*************2008 PMA NOMINEE - BILL DUTCHER*************
2005 Guitar Center Finalist - GuitarMagedon

"Over the 14 years of touring the world with the CGT, we’ve shared the stage with many great guitarists. Bill Dutcher is without a doubt one of the finest solo acoustic guitarists I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to. Energetic, innovative, excellent compositions, great tone, great player!" - PAUL RICHARDS/California Guitar Trio

"Bill Dutcher is able to play all techniques with ease, including a sublime touch of his own as well, in gentle, solid, traditional, and uplifting compositions which are of an exceptionally high level." - HENK TE VELDHUIS/Bridge Guitar Reviews
