In celebration of excellence in music and journalism, the Jazz Journalists Association has announced 2019 JJA Jazz Awards Nominees.
Nominees in most categories were chosen by the votes of the Professional Journalist Members of the Jazz Journalists Association. Nominations were made on the basis of work done in calendar year 2018, with the exception of Lifetime Achievement Awards categories, in which nominations are for a lifetime body of work. Members and others were able to submit their own work for consideration in the Photo of the Year category; a committee of JJA Members chose the nominees in that category from among the submissions.
Winners of the 2019 JJA Jazz Awards in all categories will be determined by the votes of JJA Professional Journalist Members; winners will be announced in May.
If you are a 2019 Nominee, or a 2019 Voter, and would like a “badge” to display on your website, email Admin@jazzjournalists.org.
Visit the Jazz Journalist Association website for information on how to participate a voting member or sponsor.
