Milwaukee UP: Yearly 88Nine awards a success, as per usual
This last Tuesday 88NINE Radio Milwaukee held their annual award ceremony to celebrate some of the best that the Milwaukee music sphere has to offer.
As they have in the past, they kicked off the event with a social networking party that featured a new wrinkle in the form of a new partner – Yellow Phone Music Conference.
For those in attendance at the networking aspect of the party, Yellow Phone was running a special on passes to their conference coming up later this fall.
For the performance side of the night, the radio station tapped artists that proved they were the right acts to book, as they were all finalists in at least one award category.
