TOP INDUSTRY ARTISTS AND EXECS. SUPPORT THE INDEPENDENT MUSIC AWARDS. HERE'S JUST A FEW:..
"As an artist and head of an independent music label, I am stoked to be a judge at the IMAs this year. My aim is to support and help cool underground bands get noticed and work their way up. In my personal experience, it’s very challenging for many creative groups to break into the industry, but with programs like the IMAs, many truly talented musicians can come to the forefront." 9th Annual IMA Judge Pete Wentz (Fall Out Boy, Decaydance Records)
"The IMAs helps bring attention to indie bands; puts them on the map; and gives them an opportunity at a possible big break. There are far more indie bands out there trying to make it; then bands that have made it. For some struggling indies, the only way to get put on the industry radar is to participate in programs like the IMAs." 9th Annual IMA Judge Brian "HEAD" Welch (ex-Korn)
“It’s a great program for indie Artists. I think it’s important that they get recognized for their talents." Carrie Hughes, Music Supervisor, MTV
“I like to discover new and very independent music and am always on the lookout for new things for Film/TV licensing.” IMA Judge Ani Lin from The Orchard

It's Me Again!
Ok, we're heading into March already and I must say that although I am extremely blessed and highly favored, I am SO SWAMPED! A really good friend gave me a really good piece of advice...get an assistant! Since I've taken that advice, things are a lot easier, but still busy...but that's a good thing...it's called job security! LOL! Friends are great...they really keep you honest and accountable! To my friend and assistant, Pamela Okaru...you're the bomb, but then you already knew that...you just haven't fully walked into it yet! Anywhoo, it's great to be able to send another newsletter and actually have content that I believe is newsworthy. Thanks to those of you who continue to push me to my creative limits...Pastor Kelvin Leavy...I think I know the purpose now....
