WMRC Local Music Awards

First Class Radio WMRC (1490 AM) is proud to present the 2013 WMRC Local Music Awards (LMAs) at PiNZ in Milford on Sunday, May 19, 2013. This “Grammy-esque” awards show has been created to honor the local music community for their creative contributions throughout the year. This is the second time this event has been held with last year’s LMAs drawing over 600 people to the event.  


Nominees and their guests will experience a “Hollywood-rockstar” environment” complete with limo arrival to a red carpet entrance where they will be greeted by fans and press. Nominees will be interviewed as they arrive to by our red carpet host on Milford TV. 


Live music will be featured by nominees throughout the night. Fans who are lucky enough to attain a coveted “backstage pass” can hang out with their favorite nominees in the Narragansett VIP Lounge that will emulate a true “backstage” area.
