The Association of Independent Music Publishers' Nashville chapter will be hosting an awards show in Nashville to celebrate independent songwriters, publishers, artists and industry folk on 5/7 at the Ryman Auditorium. Entertainers at the event will not be performing their own work, but songs by fellow artists and writers. That said, these musical guests have yet to be announced.
The ceremony will award honors for Song of the Year, Rising Songwriter, Artist-Songwriter, Publisher of the Year, Publisher's Pick and more. You can check out the whole list of nominees here.
