“This year’s Wammie Awards promises to be a night to remember. The DMV community really showed up for their local favorites and we saw an awe-inspiring increase in nominations and votes. We’re excited to honor our community’s musicians, creatives, and advocates in a completely refreshed awards show format. There will be something for everyone to enjoy, and we hope attendees come away feeling inspired and even more connected to the amazing music community we have in the DMV area,” said Jeffery Tribble, Jr., Executive Director of The MusicianShip.
