How do the Academy Members choose which artists to nominate?
The Academy is comprised of a diverse group of journalists, radio djs, promoters, booking agents, venue owners, and fellow industry insiders involved in the local music scene. They nominate artists who they feel are the best, based on their personal knowledge of the local music scene.
The Academy does not receive or accept submitted music and does not vote based on submitted music as this would limit the potential nominees to only those who submit music. With a broad group of individuals making up the Academy, the nominations are a true reflection of the entire OC music scene.
