artists are featured and promoted on IAMA website every month. The
website provides a review, ratings, CD information, touring

composition and originality. Artists may perform original material not
yet released and written by other songwriters or composers. All
entries submitted will receive judging sheets containing comments and
ratings by e-mail. Winners are selected by a panel of established
artists and industry professionals.*

Winners and finalists of the Awards will be featured on the IAMA
website and e-newsletters, read by music press, talent buyers,
