"There is such immense talent in our direct area" said event organizer, Ray Auger of WMRC First Class Media Solutions in Milford. "Four years ago, I decided it was time to honor the talent that encompasses Milford and its surrounding 13 towns. We make one hell of a night of it! Everyone, 21 plus, is invited to attend and enjoy a night of local music at its best… and it's FREE!"
This event is designed to look and feel as if it would be a night at the Grammy Awards. No detail is missed. There will be red carpet, VIP Lounge, SWAG, interviews; must-see-fashion, laminated VIP passes for those lucky enough to be granted access to the VIP Lounge, live performances and coveted trophies handed out throughout the night included the Stanley Cup of local music honors, The Headliner Award. The WMRC LMAs were designed to honor the arts in style.
"The focus on local music from WMRC has been amazing, says local musician and promoter Tom Pile. "The WMRC Local Music Award event is a spectacular celebration of what the local artists have accomplished over the past year, voted on by their fans and peers. Every year seems to get better and better."
Voting for the 30 multi-genre categories begins April 1st and runs through April 14th. For more details on the WMRC Local Music Awards like the Facebook page or visit http://wmrcdailynews.com./
