Each year we not only honor local musicians, but also recognize those who have contributed to help enrich, support, and further music’s reach in our community. These contributors bring ideas, inspiration, and dedication to this art scene that have helped nurture and grow the music scene—whether it's bringing new sounds to the area or giving people the tools they need to create their own. For these patrons, we present the inaugural Local Legend Award—an award given to a person or group that we feel has helped make important contributions to the music community.
