essence of the Upper State Independent Awards show is to acknowledge
independent musicians from all genres and backgrounds, showing
appreciation for work by independent musicians, poets, models,
designers, comedians, photographers, choreographers,
movie makers/DVD, on-line radio shows, and television shows just to
name a few. The award show is a local networking environment held
once a year in Syracuse New York, it will be held on November 7,
2009 at Corcoran High School this year. This will be our 3rd Annual
Upper State Independent Award show. We will have special appearances
by national professional artists from Maryland, Washington DC,
Virginia, California, Las Vegas, Ohio, and much more. This year we
are working to obtain an international artist to perform and endorse
the award show.
The USI Awards committee’s mission is to raise awareness about the talented individuals that surround us. Our way of promoting this year is our television shows, special appearances on other TV shows, radio commercials radio interviews, word of mouth, bus wraps, CDs from the first and second award show, billboards, t-shirts, brochures, fliers, and websites. We are diverse in our awards selections, as well as engaging in more entertainment elements for the community.
The Upper State Independent Awards Show is sponsored by businesses and organizations from the Syracuse area. About half of the audience is from Syracuse. The musicians, volunteers, and a few sponsors are from the regional area. In conclusion, the Upper State Independent Awards Show is a wonderful environment to network with independent talented professional business individuals. You also get to enjoy genres of music and an eye-catching fun fashion show. If you would like to be a sponsor email us. You don’t want to miss it! Hope to see you there!
