The 29th Annual Chicago Music Awards will honor the depth and diversity of the city’s and the country’s music scene, both past and present, in a wonderful event at the Alhambra Palace. Stars like Kanye West and the Smashing Pumpkins, Lou Rawls and Buddy Guy have been honored in past years.
For 2010, the roster ranges from the amazing vocalist Etta James to Bruce Korosa, a true polka legend. Dinner will be offered to attendees at 4PM, followed by the red carpet appearances of the honorees at 5:30PM and an amazing show at 7PM. The CMAs are hosted by Martin’s International Culture, a not-for-profit organization founded by Ephraim Martin, and dedicated to the celebration of Chicago’s incredible musical heritage.
