The Syracuse Music Awards "SAMMYS", much like the Grammys, is a special event that creates unique moments in music. More than anything, the event is best at bringing together a variety of different musicians in multiple genres, supporting each other on the red carpet and on stage. The SAMMYS have recognized the best musicians and albums from the Central New York music community since 1993. Winners are selected by an independent panel of music industry professionals and educators from around the country who review submissions based on their merit within their genre.
