“Totally amazed!” said Michael Stover of MTS.  “This really means so much to me, and the entire MTS Family.  It’s the culmination of all the hard work, time and money that goes into this labor of love.  I’m so proud of every one of our artists, current and past.  Last year’s event at Schermerhorn Symphony Hall was tremendous, and I know that his year’s ceremony at Nissan Stadium is going to be even bigger and better. Good luck to all the nominees!!”

ABOUT THE JOSIE MUSIC AWARDS: The Josie Music Awards is a brand of The Josie Network, LLC owned by the highly-respected partnership team of Josie Passantino and Tina Passantino.  This team set out and successfully created an award show where winners are selected on their talent, skill, material, professionalism, and more and NOT by button pressing voting.  Nominee suggestions go through a lengthy review process by a team of industry leaders and the official nomination list is created from their final decisions.  Winners are also selected by this industry leader team (this review team has no connection to independent artists).

The Josie Music Awards is an all genre music award show ceremony which includes a lavish red carpet and many performances.  Since its inaugural celebration in 2015, the Josie Music Awards was, is, and remains the largest independent artist award show globally.  Certainly, the most gala from the red carpet to the breathtaking venues the award show has been held in such as The Gaylord Opryland Resort “The Springs” building and the world-renowned Schermerhorn Symphony Center Concert Hall (both in Nashville, Tennessee).  Thousands of people from around the globe attend such as independent artists, songwriters, record labels, talent agencies, promotion companies, producers, engineers, management companies, press, music industry businesses, family/friends, and more come out each year to enjoy the performances, award recognition, and the elaborate celebration.

The Josie Music Awards was created solely to celebrate those in the independent music industry that work so hard every day and deserve to have a night of their own.  This night is not only a celebration, it is also an outstanding way to connect with others in the industry and be seen by some of the top names/companies in the business.  http://www.josiemusicawards.com
