2 years ago I wrote an article (The disappearing act of music awards) re the fact that music awards had disappeared and who knows…it might have actually been read by a few organizers out there…either way I am just glad that initiative has been taken and music awards are back. We have enough great talents out there to have a great award show that celebrates local artists and all the work and passion they put into their music. I mean who doesn’t want to feel appreciated for their creations?
The award show will be held on the 7th March at MFCC and you can get your tickets from ShowsHappening
