November 28, 2009
Presented by the Toronto Independent Music Awards and Mill Street Brewery
We’ve got beer, prime radio coverage and a highly anticipated CD release party to kick off the Season in style!
On December 9th we’re back at the Central with a brand new season of awesome live music to determine which three independent artists and bands rock the best live show in the city.
Up for grabs are three industry sponsored prize packs valued at $15,000 each. Winners will be announced at the 2009/2010 Toronto Independent Music Awards in July 2010.
PRIME RADIO COVERAGE – NEW FOR SEASON TWO We love our TIMA artists, so naturally it makes our hearts swell up with pride when we hear them on the airwaves. This season we’ve teamed up with 102.1 The Edge to give one performer from each showcase prime radio exposure on Toronto’s best new music radio station, The Edge. YOUR band could win a spot in the Edge’s weekly concert announcement, which will air eight times leading up to your TIMA BEST LIVE gig. Want your name to be heard by thousands of people all over the GTA? Submissions for Season Two of BEST LIVE showcases are still being accepted, apply under the “Entry: tab. The Best Live category is open to ALL GENRES.
