I am very happy to see Brandy Moss Scott win Favorite Female Artist. I have been a fan of her songs for years. Her “Bye Bye Baby” is one of my favorite songs of all time. Congratulations Brandy from your girl in Boston.

Loved Mind Body and Soul’s video. “Just a Matter of Time” was an outstanding song, too. Happy they won. Congrats and keep the music alive!

I have noticed several people said “Keep The Music Alive.” I think that is exactly what Indie Artists do and I am happy they are getting recognized for all their contributions, especially now, during this unusual time in history. I listen to IMN shows because of the music. I loved “Starlight” and was happy it won. Also “Days” made me long for times past and I love any song Joe Taylor sings. So, I too am saying to all artists: Keep The Music Alive.
