Not only are we now accepting submissions for Music Awards, but you can contact us at info@scotmusicawards.co.uk and let us know your suggestions for the Industry Awards.
Right now, we are excusing the 5 submission fee, all you have to do is go to the site and download the submission form and get your stuff to us. If we don't know about you there is no way you will get an award!
Our Judging panel consists of Radio Personalities, Studio Owners, and members of bands such as The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Hipsway, Nazareth and many more.
Also on the newsfront, we will be recording our first (of many we hope) 1 hour radio show to be going out on Community Radio Stations across Scotland, so if anyone has any music they would like to get aired, please mail us a copy.
Cheers
