It has been one year since the 2020 SAMMY Awards took place in Syracuse, at the Palace Theater in Eastwood<\/a>. So much has changed since that night, with this annual event taking place just two weeks before the music industry, and seemingly the world, shut down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2020 was certainly a challenging year, especially in the music industry with virtually no concerts taking place and the beginning of live streaming shows as a form of entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A year later, we are starting to see signs of life, with festivals popping up down south and venues getting the green light to let in limited capacity crowds. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2020 SAMMY Awards set records for the number of artists submitted, as well as the votes for the winners. The full list of nominees\/winners can be seen here<\/span><\/a>. In preparation for the new virtual SAMMY Awards for 2021, check out NYS Music’s photo gallery and revisit the good memories of that night, one that showcases why the Syracuse music scene is one of the best in the state. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SAMMY Awards will live-stream from SubCat Studios<\/a> in Syracuse via the SAMMYs Facebook page <\/a>beginning at 7 PM on Friday, March 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
