These nominees was based on researching reverbnation, youtube, myspace, facebook, twitter, and panel of people stemming back to the 1980′s to the current year. In addition tp the viewing of; along with the attending of shows from Famous Sams to the Venue of Scottsdale was factored in as well as national concerts. Award shows are are always subject to criticism / controversy but with that said we are working collectively to develop a foundation of standards as the award show grows. The panel do not claim to be residential experts in polling and there are some that may have not been mentioned or omitted for various reasons.

In the years to come we seek to form a committee to assist in this process. Although this will not resolve all issues but we encourage the participation of those seeking to help, support and change for the better.

Thank you Arizona for assisting in making HISTORY happen for our music industry, local talents, businessmen and woman as well as our communities.

Congratulations to all of the nominees and every artist that participated in the music scene. Hope to see everyone at the show regardless if you are nominated or not because this is about our music, movemen,t and respect.

Respectfully,
