NOMINEES & WINNERS OF THE 17th Review Music Awards Ceremony &
Celebration
The Review's 17th Annual Music Awards Ceremony took place on Monday, May
12th at Captain's Cove in Old Saginaw City. With entertainment provided
by folksinger Gretchen Toth, country artist Laurie Middlebrook, the
incedniary Dave Kellan Band, Liliana Rokita backed by The Robert Lee Band, the
Modern Experimental Hard Rock of 'BORN', and the mayhem of Bedlam, it was truly
an incredible night of music, showcasing the high caliber of original
entertainment in the mid-Michigan area.  While 'Maybe August' were
unable to perform due a member's illness, James Bradley was in the house and
filled in the set with a powerful medley of material.
Over 1,500 nominations and votes were received this year, with nominees
and winners selected entirely by the voting public, local music fans, and
readers of 'The Review'.
We would like to also pay special thanks to Advanced Audio & Light and
Harbor Beach Audio for co-sponsoring this year's event.
