A2IM Announces This Year's Libera Awards Nominees for First-of-Its Kind Global, Virtual Ceremony
2019 Libera Awards

On June 18, 2020, the American Association of Independent Music (A2IM) will be bringing the 2020 A2IM Libera Awards into people’s homes via a first-of-its-kind live-streaming global ceremony. Presented by SoundExchange and in partnership with Merlin, the virtual Libera Awards is A2IM’s way of continuing to connect artists and fans for this annual event, as well as maintaining its ninth year of supporting and honoring the extraordinary talent of independent artists. The 2020 awards show comes as A2IM celebrates 15 years of education, advocacy, and connection-building within the independent music industry.

“True to indie music’s form, our organization swiftly pivoted and evolved to serve the needs of our artists, labels, and the fans who support them,” said A2IM President and CEO Richard James Burgess. “As we all look for good news and a sense of normalcy during these turbulent times, this is a way we can serve the independent music community.”
