Mitch's New Mexico Music 'MIC' Awards History Page

For Excellence in Original Music and Recording in the New Mexico Music Community

 

In 1987, Eric Larson (President), Chuck Hawley (Vice President), Tim Cordova (Treasurer), Tom "Mitch" Mitchell (Secretary), along with other committee members, Susan Livingston, Jose Ponce, James Gerrish, John Cline, and George Gesner, (If I have missed anyone please email me - These are the names mentioned in the First Awards Banquet Program) - set out to achieve networking among recording studios and other industry professionals in order to create a climate of professionalism and artistic excellence within the New Mexico music community. The result was the New Mexico Music Industry Coalition "MIC" Awards (now known as the New Mexico Music Awards).

I was a member of the awards committee from 1987 to 1993 and from 2002 to 2006. I have published a history page of the awards winners of all 23 years. As much as I could acquire. If you have any award pictures, award programs, etc and could email digital copies of them, hopefully I can complete as much awards history as possible. Thanks In Advance - Mitch

 

The First "MIC" Awards (21 Categories) were in 1988
