The SoulTracks Readers’ Choice Awards have grown into a must-see event for lovers of modern soul music. Last year’s awards were truly magical, and we’re planning a show this year that will be even better. This year’s awards will be held on Friday, October 3 at Detroit’s beautiful Max M. Fisher Music Center.
Plan to visit us to see some killer performances by nominees for this year’s Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year, Female Vocalist of the Year, Duo or Group of the Year and Top New Artist. We’ll also be presenting our annual Lifetime Achievement Award, which is always a highlight of the show. This year’s Lifetime Achievement winners will be the incredible Dramatics.
We’ll be providing you updates on performers, tickets, accomodations etc., over the Summer. But we wanted to make sure you save the date for what promises to be one of the year’s premiere events!
