Thank you Modesto Area Music Community.
We had a great night celebrating our local bands, musicians, venues & events together. People from all over the world voted for Modesto Area Music and tuned in to watch! Crazy it has been 25 years of music celebration and we are so very grateful for all that attended, including our City and County Officials.

Thank you Middagh Goodwin for being the oracle of the MAMAs and networking all of these great people. Thanks to Jules Lobo and Dave Bracer who managed our stage like the pros they are and John Herman for sound and light. Justin Brown did a great graphics presentation. Thanks Carlos Rodriguez of Central Valley TV for the webcast, Elliot Gage for the voting mechanism, Michelle Powers for auditing the votes and keeping the MAMAs legit. Thank Beeler Industries for making the MAMA Awards and thanks to our SPWG team that does an amazing decor set up and tear down. Thanks to Bill Heyden and Ray Ray for the VIP check in service and Dylan Bolei for selling MAMA T-Shirts. Thanks Bones in the Studio for the Red Carpet photos.
