Taite Music Prize nominations closing this Friday

Music Industry News - Awards

Nominations for the 2011 Taite Music Prize close this Friday January 21 2011.

The nominated finalist albums will be selected by votes from all IMNZ members and a twenty person judging group -
comprising musicians, record label representatives, music journalists and radio staff. There will then be a second
group of ten music judges that will decide the final winner.

The judges will make their decision based entirely on the music on the album. Sales, genres, artist recognition or
popularity are not contributing factors in their decision making process. The winner will then be announced at a
presentation in Auckland in April 2011.

Independent Music New Zealand (IMNZ) and Phonographic Performances New Zealand (PPNZ) are the
principal music industry supporters of the Taite Music Prize in conjunction with the Taite family. Other sponsors
include the NZ Music Commission, NZonAir, The Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA), Native
Tongue Music Publishing
and Jagermeister.

Any New Zealand album released during 2010 is eligible for nomination for the Taite Music Prize. For more detail on
