PHASE 2 - NOMINATIONS
Only current (or newly registered) Detroit Music Awards members are allowed to participate in the Nomination Phase.
During this phase, the Nomination Ballot is available online after an eligible voting member has logged in. Eligible voters were emailed instructions when the nomination process began. If you feel you are an eligible voter and did NOT receive an email, please contact us to confirm we have your correct email on file.
The Nomination Ballot allows voters to choose from the names and recordings that were submitted in Phase I and have met the previously outlined criteria. You will need your Voter ID (username) and Voter Key (password) to begin the online election. Click HERE to be taken to the log-on page. If you have forgotten your ID or password, please email: submissions@detroitmusicawards.net so we can try to help recover your information.
Voting in this Phase will end at 11:59pm on Sunday, March 17. The top six (6) in each category will then move on to the Final Ballot stage (to begin early April). Due to the large number of submissions, these ballots are very long in some of the genres. We strongly encourage people to use a computer or the Election Runner app when voting to prevent errors. For a list of Special Honorees not eligible to win in their respective categories this year, please refer to the explanation and list on the SPECIAL HONOREES page.
Names eligible to be considered as Nominees must have a connection, or perform a body of work, primarily in the Detroit metro area, which, for our purposes, stretches as far north as Flint, as far west as metropolitan Ann Arbor, as far south as the Ohio border, and as far east as the Detroit River and Lake St. Clair.
Recordings eligible for the 2019 Detroit Music Awards to be considered as choices must have been released between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018. Recordings need to be available for purchase or streaming to the public via physical or digital means between those dates.
