NME Awards

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The NME Awards are an annual music awards show, founded by the music magazine NME.

The first awards show was held in 1953, shortly after the founding of the magazine. The awards reflect the magazine's indie ethos, in contrast to the Brit Awards' more commercial nature.
